Lesson Plan – Stereotypes

Role-playing, questions, discussion - role playing style activities, concept of stereotypes and survey of assumptions behind it

Barker's bar and grill are rich in meals. The owner found that the bag of money was only stolen from the area where only employees could enter. The owner suspected that an employee responsible for receiving the package was still in the restaurant because no one had left the restaurant within the last 30 minutes and the back watched the bag 20 minutes ago.

We appoint six students as employees and nominate them to provide personal information to them. The rest of the course will serve as a meal.

We call on "Diner" to ask employees to ask which employees are guilty. "Employee" improvises answer

After inquiries over a period of time, the diner makes a group (4-5) and is asked to discuss the information submitted and the information guilty of the employee who has reached an agreement

Instead of reporting the voices of other people in the group, discuss the stereotypes and instruct the whole group to ask the students to review their thoughts

Life Harmony Funding Project "Culture is Cool", Narre Community Learning Center, VIC, 2003

Most of the teachers participating in this project were surprised at "stereotype of sex", "especially older children". They recognize that a particular course focusing on gender stereotype and its impact is important but recognizes that such an assumption should be questioned. Also, I noticed that young children 's question tends to produce a different response to "What do you like like" - "What sort of boys and girls do you like?" Stereotypical reactions may be obtained if it is not very useful, but the problem is phrasing.

This is the second of the three courses to deal with gender stereotypes. The purpose of these courses encourages the development of unique important information on cultural genetic stereotypes as well as images displayed on media such as movies and television, rock music, newspapers, magazines etc. . This course begins with a review of stereotypes. Male and female and their potential sources - including the role of media. Students disassemble a series of advertisements based on gender representation and answer questions about gender stereotypes of read articles.

In this lesson, I will explain the "stereotype" of primary school student. By doing "games like steel" students will be involved in a challenging sex stereotype and many ways in which they can be adapted or destroyed. They list some common gender stereotypes for girls and boys and learn how all kids decide what they like and what they want when they grow up. Discussion throughout the group: First write down the "finalize" on the board and ask the students whether they've heard that word before. If you have one, give me an example. Please write this definition to the Board. "With simple thought, I think that many people are not always suitable for everyone in the group."
