Stereotypes



Do stereotypes exist in Rm 10? Today we moved around the walls in our classroom examining closely photos of people we had never met before. Our challenge was to create a profile of that person based on what we could see. Age, marital status, occupation, likes and dislikes were some aspects we had to consider. After creating our profile, we read the actual profile of very real people. The dangers of stereotyping include;
·         you judge people unfairly
·         you might miss out on a possible friendship
·         you might patronise people or be frightened of them
·         you might treat them unfairly
·         you would appear ignorant.
