Stereotype Concept Map

A stereotype is a fixed idea that everyone in a group is the same. Read the rainforest-walk scenario, then explore the idea with examples, choices and your own thinking. People are individuals; ask, listen and avoid guessing.

A rainforest walk

Freya, Nikau and Losa are walking along a rainforest track with their group. Freya says, “I heard that boys are always better at finding the way.” Nikau replies, “I like navigating, but that doesn’t mean all boys do.” Losa adds, “Let’s choose the navigator by asking who wants to try and taking turns.” Later, the group shares jobs based on what each person wants to do.

1.In your own words, what is a stereotype? Explain why the word “all” can be a warning sign.
2.Which sentence from the rainforest walk is a stereotype?
  • “I heard that boys are always better at finding the way.”
  • “I like navigating.”
  • “Let’s choose the navigator by asking who wants to try.”
3.Is this statement a stereotype or an individual preference? “Nikau likes navigating.” Choose one and explain.
4.Why might the stereotype about boys and navigation be unfair or unhelpful?
5.Choose a fair way for the group to decide who navigates.
  • Ask who wants to try, then take turns.
  • Always choose a boy.
  • Assume the quietest person cannot do it.
6.Write one example of a stereotype you might hear about a group. Do not use a real person’s name. Then rewrite it as a fair, specific statement.
7.Complete the concept map: put STEREOTYPE in the centre. Add one meaning, one example, one possible harm, and one respectful response.
8.True or false: If one person in a group has a particular skill, that proves everyone in the group has the same skill.
TrueFalse
9.A group member says, “You probably won’t want to lead because people like you are shy.” Write a respectful reply that challenges the assumption without being unkind.
10.Name one thing you can do when you notice yourself making an assumption about someone.
