Abstract

The world of the future is and will be increasingly become digital and therefore, multicultural. The dynamic changes in how children learn and live challenged the early childhood teachers to adjust the curriculum in order to support the children accordingly. This study aims at reviewing the teacher beliefs and practices of multi-culture in early childhood classrooms. The review of the teacher beliefs will be based on the questionnaire about multiculturalism. The review of the teacher practices will be based on the one week lesson plan analysis. The findings described the exploration of the teachers beliefs and practices on multiculturalism in early childhood. As the curriculum still currently using the tourist approach, the teacher beliefs and practices in multicultural education are around the objectified culture. However, apart from the findings, this study provides the benefits in another fold: how the process of the investigation raised the teachers’ awareness to introduce multiculturalism for young children. All in all, the study hold promise for utilization in future research on teachers beliefs and practices in multicultural education in early childhood education.
