Maureen McLean

Maureen McLean is the author of the 'People Places and Things in My Community Grade 2 Integrated Studies Workbook', which has recently come under scrutiny for including an activity that prompts young students to discuss polygamous relationships. In defense of her work, McLean argues that the intention behind the activity was to expose children to diverse family structures across cultures. She is also the director of the publishing company behind the workbook and has indicated that the book is currently being reviewed to align with updated curriculum standards.
