Make your scholars more aware of stereotypical portrayals in film and television. Discuss the definition of "stereotypes" and how they are used to present a story. High schoolers look at specific television shows and complete a chart recording typical characters you would find. Then, they read the included article "Tinsel Town" and answer questions based on it. Finally, groups take on the role of a television producer and create an outline for a hypothetical series.
