September 28: Gender Differences

In-Class Activities:

1) Neuron Note. You read answers to your questions and wrote a new question.

2) Heritability. I clarified what it is. If it still is troublesome, see me at lunch.

3) Gender Differences Fishbowl Conversation. You wrote anonymous questions to ask the opposite sex and I collected them. They all the ladies got together in a circle, with the guys listening on the outside, to have an honest conversation about them. And then we switched with the guys answering the ladies' question in the circle in order to find out their responses. This allows each gender to get a chance to talk amongst themselves honestly. In the end, we came to the conclusion that all females are not the same and all males are not the same.

4) Enjoy Homecoming!

Assignments:

1) Start chapter 4.

2) Notes again for those of you with 80 or lower on the tests. Optional chapter vocabulary notecards.

3) Gender Bender. Analyze gender stereotyping in the world and write up your experience. See the half sheet I gave you on what to do.

Extra credit video at lunch start on Wednesday!
