WRITE IT RIGHT(p.41)
Before setting the students to task, make sure you explain to them what the word prejudice
means. Brainstorm with them the types of gender/generational/racial prejudice that are most
common in our society. e.g., Women are not usually considered to be strong; men are thought as
effiminate if they speak softly; the elderly are supposed to be able to do nothing once they are
retired; the young are regarded as impulsive etc. The students should feel free to denounce the
prejudices they like.
