B. REVIEW

Last time, we talked about Liars Don’t


Qualify by Junius Edwards. Can you still
recall the events from the story?
“Yes ma’am”

Alright! Then, let’s try to answer some


questions. You just raise your hand when
answering

Is my instruction clear? “Yes ma’am”


Okay let’s start!

1. What is the story liars don’t qualify “It is about a young veteran trying to
about? register to vote before the Voting Rights
and Civil Rights acts were passed.”

2. What was Will’s mission? “To register a vote”


3. Is it really important to vote? “Yes! Because it is our right as citizens of
the country and the decision that we
make regarding who to vote will
determine the kind of government that will
serve us.”
Great job everyone!

C. MOTIVATION

Are you familiar with the tv show “bawal


judgmental” of Eat Bulaga? “Yes ma’am!”
Northwestern Visayan Colleges
College of Education
Kalibo, Aklan

Bawal Judgmental is a game where


players are tasked with the responsibility
of identifying the correct choices among a
group of people with distinctive
characteristics, past experiences, and
emotional relations.

Today, we are going to play that game! I


am going to show you some pictures of
different people, and you have to guess
and determine who is who.

Do you understand class? “Yes ma’am!”

Alright then let’s start!

1. Who is the business owner? “The man in a tux ma’am!


Why? Because he’s wearing a formal attire!”
Alright, let us see if you guessed it
right. (The teacher will reveal the
answer)

The correct answer is, the man in


glasses is the business owner.
“The woman carrying books and a bag
2. Who is the campus leader?
ma’am!”
Correct!
“Because she is carrying books and a
How did you know that it was the
bag ma’am plus she also looks kind.”
woman carrying books and a bag
is the campus leader?

Alright, next!
“The pretty white woman ma’am”
3. Who do you think won the beauty
pageant?
“Because she is beautiful ma’am”
How come?
“She is pretty, but the other one is more
And the woman with dark skin is beautiful.”
not?

(Teacher reveals the answer)

The correct answer is the woman


with dark skin is the one who won
the beauty pageant.

You know class, sometimes it is


very easy for us to pre- judge
someone based on their
appearance, even if we don’t know
anything about them and that’s
prejudice.
Northwestern Visayan Colleges
College of Education
Kalibo, Aklan

On the other hand, for example if


you are had been the judge of the
beauty pageant and you witnessed
that the woman with dark skin is
smarter and has a better answer
than the other woman but you still
chose to give her a lower score,
that is bias.

D. PRESENTATION

Alright class our lesson for today is about


Bias and Prejudice. Before we start here
are our three objectives for today.
1. “Identify bias and prejudice in the
Everyone kindly read our three material viewed.”
objectives. 2. “Show situations that depict bias
and prejudice.”
3. “Express personal thoughts about
bias and prejudice”.

Thank you!
These are the things that are expected
from you at the end of our lesson. “Yes ma’am!”

Is that clear?

E. DISCUSSION

When we say bias, it is a tendency to


favor one person, group, thing or point of
view over another, often in an unfair way.

For example, some companies hire only


women because they feel they make
better employees for some gender- “Yes ma’am!”
related reasons or vice versa.
“She won the contest because one of the
Do you understand class? judges is her uncle.”
Alright, can you give me an example of
bias?
“I like female nannies that the male ones.”
Very good!

Give me another example


“Pedro is a catholic and he thinks that his
Very good! religion is superior to other religions.”
Give me another example
“It is bias because Pedro favored his
religion over other religions.”
Northwestern Visayan Colleges
College of Education
Kalibo, Aklan

How is that bias?

Very good!

Remember class that bias leads to


favoritism

We have here some biases, biased


towards and biased against.

Biased towards something means you


favor it over something else.

For example, if a company is biased


towards women, they might hire only
women because they feel they make “To be biased towards dogs means that
better employees for some gender- you favor dogs over something else, such
related reason. as cats.”

Can you give me an example?

Very good!

Sometimes, people say they favor


something. For example, “My daughter is
so talented, but I’m biased (I am biased
towards her).

Biased against something means you do


not favor it over something else.
“I don’t like bananas, so I’m going to eat
For example, If a company is biased this mango instead.”
against woman, they might hire a man
over a more-qualified female candidate.

Can you give me more examples class?

Very well!

Prejudice is an unfavorable opinion or


feeling formed beforehand or without
knowledge, thought or reason. It simply
means to pre-judge others.

It can be based on the race, age, gender,


religion and socioeconomics (status in
life)

For example, a same-sex couple wanted “Jason didn’t pass the job screening
to order a cake for their wedding day. But because he has many tattoos.”
the baker did not accept their order and
Northwestern Visayan Colleges
College of Education
Kalibo, Aklan

refused to bake their cake. “Because Jason has tattoos, and he was
judged for that.”
Can you give me an example of
prejudice?

Why is that consider as prejudice?

Very good! “The girl refuses to become friends with


the black American boy she thinks that he
Remember class that prejudice leads to is horrible.”
discrimination

Give me another example “You are excluded from your circle of


friends because all of them have TikTok
dance covers except you.”
Very good!

Give me another example


“Yes ma’am!”
“None ma’am!”
Very good!

Do you understand class?


Do you have any questions?

Very good!

F. APPLICATION

I will give you 10 minutes to come up and


create a mini dialogue/role play showing
your personal experiences of prejudice or
bias.

Your groupmates will be the people on


the same row as you.

Total- 50 points

Your time starts now.

G. GENERALIZATION

Bias is a tendency to favor one person,


group, thing or point of view over another,
often in an unfair way. “Biased towards something means you
favor it over something.”
For example, some companies hire only
women because they feel they make “For example, if a company is biased

related reasons or vice versa. women because they feel they make

Biased against something means you do “Prejudice is an unfavorable opinion or

knowledge, thought or reason. It simply
For example, if a company is biased means to pre-judge others.”
against woman, they might hire a man
over a more-qualified female candidate.

What is prejudice?
(Students will read the article in the
picture)

Very good! “No ma’am!”

I have here some example of some


actress being judged by people (The “It can lead to a fight and chaos ma’am”
teacher will show some pictures)

Class let’s think about this, do you think


it’s right to judge someone? “Yes ma’am, my sister is mom’s favorite,
she is always praising her and not me.”
What could be the consequence of pre-
judging people?

And it will also create division

Favoritism which is bias creates division “I will tell him/her that what he/she’s doing
especially at home. Have you experience is wrong and he/she should just be kind
that class? and fair to everyone.”

Pre-judgement and favoritism results to


nothing good in anything.

What will you do if you see and encounter


someone who is pre-judging others?

Very good! “Yes ma’am!”

Class, let us always remember to never


judge a book by its cover
We can be curios, but not judgmental (Students give themselves a round of
