About this Lesson

Prior to reading the complex journal article, "Stereotypes and the Older Workers," students engage with a range of multimedia texts to build background knowledge around the theme "Acceptance." The layering of these multiple and varied sources allows for a rich discussion and deep understanding of the theme and the complex article.  The text in this lesson can often be found in libraries or at online bookstores.

This video shows a real-life classroom, with all the real-life challenges and successes found in daily interactions between students and teachers. It has been selected because it includes illustrations of the Core Actions and Indicators embedded in the day-to-day work happening in schools, and so it offers opportunities to practice using and norming expectations around the Instructional Practice Guide: Coaching Tool. Learn more about this video and others in the collection.
