Common Core State Standards:
Anchor Standards: Critically analyze elements of literature: plot, theme, characters, setting,
figurative language, tone, conflicts, point of view, and author’s purpose.
Workplace standards: Thinks critically. Students display analytical and strategic thinking. This
can be seen in debating an issue, converging on an understanding, assessing a problem, and
questioning (playing devil's advocate).
ISTE standards (students): 6d - Students publish or present content that customizes the
message and medium for their intended audiences.
ISTE standards (teachers): Promote student reflection using collaborative tools to reveal and
clarify students’ conceptual understanding and thinking, planning, and creative processes.
Objective (Explicit):
Students will be able to formulate their own thoughts and ideas in regards to gender stereotyping by
analyzing a poem and will show their feelings by organizing their own poem about their experiences with
gender stereotyping and will voluntarily read out loud to the class.
Evidence of Mastery (Measurable):
¨ Include a copy of the lesson assessment.
¨ Provide exemplar student responses with the level of detail you expect to see.
¨ Assign value to each portion of the response.
The students will read a 116 word poem about gender stereotypes. They will be expected to
annotate and have a discussion on it as a group. They will note anything in the poem that they
could relate to and how it made them feel. They will then be required to write their own free
verse poem containing no more than 3 or 4 lines about gender stereotypes or gender in
general. It will show their skills of being able to annotate and analyze a poem as well write their
own.
Using Mentimeter
Example: “What does it mean to throw like a girl?”
Gender and the stereotypes that associate with them - Students will first be asked to answer a

quick question on Mentimeter regarding gender using either their phones or laptops. The
question will be, ‘What does it mean to throw like a girl?” (This is meant to warm them up and
prepare them for a group discussion later on). After everyone has answered, we will come
together and talk about why I might have chosen this question for them. We will then shift gears
and begin reading the poem titled “Gender Stereotypes” out loud as a class. Either a student
who wants to read it will read or I will read it for them if no one volunteers. Once the reading is
over, the students will have a couple minutes to annotate the poem and discuss with a partner
about what they thought of it/what it means to them. In the last couple minutes of class, we will
come back together as a whole and discuss gender stereotypes and how this poem relates to it.

their poem, they should wait quietly for further
instruction.
Differentiation Strategy
Students with LD will be given a separate poem that will have highlighted sections between the
lines that discuss boys/men and the lines that discuss girls/woman (for example: the boy’s lines
would be highlighted in green and the girl’s sections highlighted in yellow). This can help the
students discern the difference and keep them separated from each other when reading and
analyzing the poem
Guided Practice
Facilitated class discussion with scripted The students will actively participate by raising
questions about the poem referencing specific their hands and answering these critical thinking
lines. (Used Blooms Questioning) questions during class discussion.
Differentiation Strategy
For struggling students, the critical thinking questions that are going to be asked during the
discussion section will be typed out at the bottom of their paper with the poem to make sure that
they have a place to reference them and take notes underneath them.

Independent Practice
Differentiation Strategy
Students with learning disorders may have extra time to complete their poem by taking it home and
returning it to class the next day. For students who desire to go above and beyond, they may write
another poem at home and bring it to class the next day as well.
Students will be asked to present their poems that they have created about gender or gender
stereotyping to the class as their ticket out the door.
