Sociology

Students added some more gender stereotypes to their lists; we'll come back to this list tomorrow.  We then viewed some You tube clips and made notes of analysis for each:  [1] "The Mask" (3:09) about gender expectations for boys (NOTE: there is harsh language exemplified for analysis; not for the ears of younger children), [2] "How the Media Failed Women" (3:38) (NOTE: racy visual imagery for deliberate analysis; not ideal children's eyes, albeit from mainstream media), and [3] Alfre Woodard reads Sojourner Truth... (3:43).  Be sure to check in with a reliable classmate to capture, also, discussion notes on each.
