Exploring Gender Stereotypes in Stories | Learning for Justice - 1 views

  • Explain to students that they are going to write a profile of a character who stands up against gender stereotypes. Provide students with the appropriate graphic organizers and have them work independently to begin developing their characters.

      This demonstrates 7I - "support and expand learner expression in speaking, writing, and other media" because students are writing a profile of a character who stands up against gender stereotypes, it expands their learning through critical thinking in developing a character with this in mind.
  • As you read, stop to elicit student responses to the question: What personality traits and behaviors show us that this character rejects gender stereotypes? Chart student responses. When you are finished reading, help students look back over the list they have come up with. Ask how it feels to read about a character who stands up to so many gender stereotypes.

      This demonstrates 4E - "understand how a student's learning is influenced by individual experiences, talents, and prior learning, as well as language, culture, family, and community values" because students would have prior knowledge in how they think of gender roles through their family/cultural experiences. This could be through toys they have been bought (dolls/toy cars), family roles within the household (who cooks/who does yard work), the clothes they wear, etc.
  • Come together to allow students to share observations. Ask students how they think children’s book authors might contribute to the construction of gender, and challenge students to question whether this is fair.
    • angieharris
       
      This demonstrates 3G - "use a student's thinking and experiences as a resource in planning instructional activities by encouraging discussion, listening and responding to group interaction, and eliciting oral, written, and other samples of student thinking" because students work with a partner to observe what they see in picture books about gender stereotypes and then they come together as a group to share ideas with each other about what they discovered. Students are then asked to think about if the construction of gender is fair. The group interaction helps them learn from each other.

No Child Is Just Born Gifted: Creating and Developing Unlimited Potential | National As... - 0 views

  • High intelligence, whether expressed in cognitive abilities such as the capacity to generalize, conceptualize, or reason abstractly, or in specific abilities such as creative behavior, results from the interaction between inherited and acquired characteristics. This interaction encompasses all of the physical, mental, and emotional characteristics of the person and all of the people, events, and objects entering the person’s awareness. Our reality is unique to each of us.

Signs and Symptoms of Autism Spectrum Disorders | CDC - 2 views

  • Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a developmental disability caused by differences in the brain. Some people with ASD have a known difference, such as a genetic condition. Other causes are not yet known. Scientists believe there are multiple causes of ASD that act together to change the most common ways people develop.

      ASD definition
  • ASD begins before the age of 3 years and can last throughout a person’s life, although symptoms may improve over time. Some children show ASD symptoms within the first 12 months of life. In others, symptoms may not show up until 24 months or later. Some children with ASD gain new skills and meet developmental milestones, until around 18 to 24 months of age and then they stop gaining new skills, or they lose the skills they once had.
