Lesson Plan: Gender Stereotypes! Happy women’s day!

Lesson Plan: Gender Stereotypes!

Continuing with this topic I have prepared a lesson for my intermediate course on men and women role stereotypes that I would like to share with you. I have found a good lesson plan in English-4u, a webpage where you’ll find lesson plans based on news and hit songs, to introduce the topic. The title of the lesson is “Jobs About the House” and it is a reading activity based on some statistics by the UK Office for National Statistics. After doing the activities proposed there, we can discuss whether we live in a man’s world and who is expected to do all the household chores. To finish off the lesson, we can work on an episode from friends (season 9, episode 6): “The one with the male nanny”.

Here you’ll find some activities you can do with your students while watching the video: Make a list of things the men that appear in the video do, that are not generally associated with the male sex.How’s Ross feeling when he talks to Sandy?

With my advanced learners I find that this might take up to 2 hours of class time so I typically split the questions over two classes. I don't want students getting bored with the topic so i don't make them do the questions all at once. Students do tell me the conversations are interesting so it may not be necessary to split the activity over 2 classes. With the information gap, I generally put As and Bs together to form the necessary questions before pairing them up to fill out the worksheet.

Students sometimes try to do the impossible and start the activity with someone who has the same information they have. American girls' chores typically include domestic chores such as setting the table, helping with the laundry, vacuuming, and loading the dishwasher. Parents often give gender-differentiated toys to their children such as stuffed animals and Barbie Dolls for girls and _______________ for boys. Podcast: Gender Roles.

The lesson starts with a sentence to punctuate. woman without her man is nothing I usually just write the words on the board and ask the students to think about it and do it in their exercise book first, then they come to the board to punctuate, in turn. We quickly analyse the grammar/syntax of the sentences produced, and determine whether the sentence is correct or not, whether it makes sense and if so, what the basic information is, what the extra information is. According to the maturity and level of the students, this activity can be fun.
