Procedures/Activities
Step:
1 Duration: 15 min.
Begin class period with a discussion of some activities found
in their world (e.g., teacher, doctor, waitress). After students have verbalized
activities, ask the names of the people they know who do the activities they
mentioned. Tell the students to think carefully about the people and their
activities. Ask, “Is there anything that people doing an activity have in
common?” For an example, remind them about teaching and the people they
identified as teachers. Ask them if they noticed that most teachers are women.
Another example would be that football players are usually big. Let the children
then tell any other characteristics they noticed about people and their
activities.
Step: 2 Duration: 15
min.
After children have given other examples, get the children
into small groups. Distribute the matching occupation game to each group and let
