Today, I would like to present a new lesson plan which revolves around the subjects of pop art, female representation and gender stereotypes in media. You can find a warmer activity with a haiku written by me (it is all in a ppt which you can download), the lesson plan (also attached in a word doc) and a ppt for the lesson. I hope you enjoy it and you can use it with your students. Do not hesitate to leave me comments, if you do use it. I would like to know how it worked with your classes.
