April Week Three

This week we talked about stereotypes and prejudice as applied to people from different countries, and of different race, age, gender, sexual orientation etcetera.

You can review with a video about grammar and vocab related to prejudice.

LISTENING
Learners can try a clip about national stereotypes.

For original version, I recommend watching the documentary a Class Divided about how one teacher taught her students how to move past racism in the wake of MLK's assassination.

READING
Learners can read a text about prejudice, jealousy and short people.

For original version, you can read about several news stories that tackle gender stereotyping or Zadie Smith's article You Are in Paradise.

WRITING
Take a look at some of the video clips from the website Breaking Prejudice about ageism, sexism,LGBT,
stereotyping and classism.

Choose one videoclip and describe it. Then give your opinion. Does it show stereotyping? Is it offensive? Why or why not?

Best,
Kelly
