This document outlines the aims and activities of a lesson focused on challenging gender stereotypes. The lesson involves students watching a film clip and discussing the behaviors of male and female characters. They then discuss stereotypes about how boys and girls should behave. Working in pairs, students create notes about their favorite foods, toys, emotions and behaviors, placing them on drawings of boy and girl figures to show similarities. The lesson aims to teach students that both genders can have sensitive sides and be brave.
