Description: This lesson plan is created for elementary classrooms to use cartoons and film to discuss stereotyping, or ultimately, to talk about how it feels to have people say things about you that are not true. Teachers are given detailed instructions on teaching students to identify details and implications of media images of “bad guys” and “good guys” while specifically examining Arab characters. Also provided is a robust list of activities to help students understand different aspects of the Arab American community through food, games, language and more.
