This is me!

Okay. Um I have created a lesson plan for this

particular task and assignment and this is what I'm going

to discuss with you.

A topic being this is me.

I'm not going into the L.

G. B.

T. Q.

Subject because I actually thought of rather Creating two or

maybe only one lesson that's actually a prequel to that

subject. So let's move on to the next slide.

My lesson plan is actually more geared to uh introducing

diversity on different realms, stereotypes, crushing those, crashing those stereotypes

and stereotypes and gender.

Well you know where we would expect manly jobs you

know also being occupied by women etcetera.

You'll see.

Um So that's what I had as my subject.

So diversity um on a bigger scale.

So moving on uh as every class will start with

a starter as you would in restaurant there is a

start to remain course and then there is after his

desserts etcetera.

So my starter or warmer will be as follows.

I thought of actually um during the next exercise which

is not in any book but I just made up

so let's make a drawing, enjoy yourself.

And it doesn't have to be a Rembrandt or Van

Gogh. Just draw very simply don't have to use colors.

Just a great um uh you know principle do or

just a pen doesn't really matter.

The uh the assignment will be or the exercise will

be to draw yourself as you see yourself.

So with the most important features let's say you have

for example gray hair.

Then you would you know emphasize that green eyes etcetera

etcetera. Close.

I'll let them experience and we'll give them let's say

Some seven minutes for that or maybe less.

Um and then I'll ask them to write down five

words which describe them.

And so well given the example of course as I

did here when you watch that bit, they can ride

down very cryptically in a few words or a sentence

if they like um what they think are important features

of themselves.

So for me that would be gray hair, green eyes

and she loves t.

So what you really love, your allowed to include that

in the drawing and into list.

So moving on.

Um okay, so I found this really interesting um very

suitable to this topic um short clip on the CBBC

website and um it's about a girl whose dad is

Guineas and her uh mother is from England and growing

up in England, she had and she had experienced certain,

you know, troubles growing up and she talks about how

it made her feel.

So that will also ask the students to watch out

for and pay attention to what did she feel like

growing up in England?

And how did it make her feel and whether they

would? Um also be able to comment on that after

watching this video.

Okay, then there will be many other exercises will also

include vocabulary and so on, which I've written out in

the lesson plan, but I'm not going to include in

this very short clip of 10 minutes because it will

easily go beyond that in time.

Um Let me see.

Yes, you were.

Um I've prepared this, but I was still a bit

nowhere, so easily bad sidetracked.

Okay, so for the main body of the actual class,

I'll be moving on to the textbook.

I've strictly adhered to the structure of the actual textbook

stepping stones because I myself haven't had any experience developing

a lesson plan, let's let alone developing content for such

a class.

So I've pretty much stuck to it and adapted most

of the exercises to the needs of this subject of

diversity. I found one lesson in the book, but actually

did suit the subject because when you have a good

look at this picture, you see, um not all the

people in it are white and well fair haired, fair

skinned and I thought that was quite suitable.

It will also recap the knowledge that they have of

the in this family tree.

They are asked to ride down the words that would

fit these blanks.

So me starting right well, I can assure you right

now, but with the empty space above me, obviously, then

next to that system above a mother and father etcetera.

So filling these out, they would also kind of recap.

Um yeah, familiar words.

Okay, next up is the grammar exercise, which I found

a tad stereotype, but okay, so I kind of just

it up.

So instead of, um, I hope you can see this,

I'm using my curses.

So here you have this boy, fair hair, fair skin,

etcetera. And his name is Lucas et cetera and he

talks about his age.

Well, I would use a different kind of picture.

It shows two siblings both have different color skin, so

that's quite interesting.

And um, I'll read it out for a bit.

You can do that.

Hi there, my name is Jenny and I live in

London 10.

I am 10 years old.

I have a twin sister.

Her name is Amy.

We also have to be between brothers.

Their names are Ben and jerry.

They're identical twin, just like us and just like me

and oh me.

No one believes where twins.

Can you guess why?

That's right.

The color of our skin, our skin is not the

same etcetera, etcetera, where it goes on a little bit

in the same kind of tone.

It will also be proceeded by several others exercises, which

I will not go into, but it will be in

the same mode.

Uh, there will be vocabulary exercises, grammar exercises, et cetera.

Then moving on to sports and hobbies.

So all these stones, let's say are linked to identity

and diversity.

And so I came up with sports and hobbies.

Um, I will start with a uh with a short

clip or trailer actually of the movie Jamie Oliver, Jamiel

Billy Elliot.

I don't know where that came from.

Okay, so Billy Elliot, you might know.

This is about a young boy who developed this passion

for ballet and really wants to do this, but his

father has other plans with him.

But instead of giving in, he really fights for his

passions and he continues ballet anyways.

So I thought that would actually appeal to the, to

the generation of students that I'm dealing with in my

class because most of the adolescents will recognize, you know,

fighting parents and well going against what is expected of

them and so on that that might appeal to them.

And this way I would also, you know, kind of

introduced as a subject of diversity, you can love all

kinds of, um, uh, sports or hobbies that might not

be very typical for your gender or there's at least

in prevalent ideas on that particular subject.

So, uh, and before showing this clip, I would ask

them to write because I will be, um, I will

have this box, which they can take different, at least

some 10 different hobbies and sports, which they can, which

I'll ask them to write down whether or not they

would be interested to try those.

And then I would go on to the clip after

the clip.

They can answer several questions here.

You see different pictures of the main characters of the

movies and you have to connect the picture with the

things that they said during that clip.

Then there will be another exercise exercise be answered the

questions what sport does Elliot's father wants him to play,

etcetera, etcetera.

I also have a right um a themed words category.

I will show this picture obviously, it's quite evidently a

dark, darker skin toned, a woman and not a man,

because many words also in dutch.

And then english, it happens that the very specifically gendered

uh type of names like firefighter is neutral.

So, but then there is postman, what if it were

all and what would you call her?

Right, okay.

So instead of actually emphasizing that element, I asked them

to write down um the correct team words which will

be followed up by another exercise of which they can

look down to the words to find them.

So helmet jacket etcetera etcetera, which will be able to

ride down here.

Moving on.

Then there is another exercise reading exercise.

I let them read this um exert which is about

a blogger who has found difficulties with her figure and

she's been ridiculed for it and she decides to she

had to turn the tables on the mean person who

rode a rode all kinds of very nasty things about

her on this rock here.

And she decided to instead of um we'll go home

and crying to make fun of it actually making it

about her and not about who wrote this.

So I thought that was quite cool to show, you

know, also that you don't have to be slender and

beautiful to enjoy life and enjoy who you are and

enjoy your beauty so that the next exercise I've beyond

this above and below I um put some words like

red hair, yellow pumps, etcetera, which they will have to

link. And um, and yeah, to the picture, Pictures, I

have to really make this more brief because 10 minutes

is way too short.

Okay. Just because um, is part of the homework, which

I will give them just because there's a very uh

well known exercise and it deals with stereotypes as you

can reach and over read out the poem and then

I'll ask them to um felt make their own poem.

They will get a template starting with just because I'm

dot dot dot, which will be they will be able

to fill in in their own free times at home

and take with them the next day to school.

So that's my plan for my lesson.

I hope that's clear.

If there are any answer questions, I would like to

hear them.

This is me!
