Contrary to what people think, history is no less important when it comes to clothes. In olden days, young people in Algeria were used to wear djellabas whereas today they wear trousers and shirts. In olden days, they were used to wear sheshias, but nowadays, they wear sports caps The most important factor that determines dressing styles today is fashion. So in most of the world people like wearing jeans and sports shoes. However, there are still some countries which keep to their traditional clothing in spite of globalisation.

Steps of the lesson: Timing Steps
Input / Output
Write it up The teacher guides the pupils to the complete form of the poem (p. 41) about prejudices and asks them to pick out the various kinds of prejudices and give examples of real life situations, and those inherited as social beliefs. Key answers: Gender Prejudice
Gender stereotype refers to the attitude that all members of a particular gender -- all women, all girls, all men, all boys -- are a certain type of person. From this stereotype emerges sexism -- the belief that members of one gender are inferior to another. For example, the attitude that girls don't understand math and science as well as boys do is based on a long-held stereotype about basic female intelligence. When schools then choose to make math and science programs available for boys but not girls, they are acting on these prejudices and discriminating against girls by limiting their right to equal education opportunities.
Racial/Ethnic Minority Prejudice
When the owner of a large hotel chain chooses not to employ those of a certain race or ethnicity because he believes they are in some way inferior to another, he is discriminating based upon a specific kind of prejudice called racism. He has not taken the time to get to know individuals in this minority group, and is "pre-judging" them as inferior based on generalizations and stereotypes.
Immigrants, Refugees and Gypsy Populations
Often linked with racial prejudice, attitudes toward immigrants, refugees and nomadic populations can also constitute prejudice and can form the basis of legislation that discriminates against these groups. The underlying belief is that these people "are not from here," and are thus viewed as "the other" and inferior. This particular kind of attitude -- the fear of foreigners -- is called xenophobia. For example, at the turn of the 20th century in the U.S., there were deeply held prejudices against the most recent immigrant group to arrive to our shores. But this xenophobic attitude toward new immigrant groups still exists today, toward immigrants from Latin America. In
Aims The pupils should be able to get an idea about the common kinds of prejudices.
Europe, the Roma remain one of the most persecuted minority groups. Age Prejudice
When townships and states pass laws limiting the rights of children to participate in legislation that might affect them, they are acting on an age prejudice -- or ageism. In this case, the belief is that those below a certain age cannot understand or contribute meaningfully to lawmaking dialogues. Conversely, when an elder-care facility refuses to install Internet technology because of the belief that older people don't have the energy or ability to learn web navigation, they are acting upon ageism.
Sexual Orientation Prejudice
Prejudging someone because of their sexual orientation is called homophobia, and it's often based on the stereotype that all gay men or lesbians are a certain way and thus inferior. Also commonly lumped in this category are people's attitudes towards transgender or transsexual individuals, even though these are genders and not sexual orientations. Individuals who exist somewhere along the gender continuum but who defy being classified as either male or female are often the victims of prejudice.
Class Prejudice
Classism is the belief or attitude that those of a certain economic class are inferior to another class. In some government structures, classism is employed by the ruling class as a basis to limit the rights of the lower class. For instance, by not extending funding to repair and renovate old schools or build new ones in low-income communities, the ruling class is sending the message that lower-class individuals are not entitled to quality education opportunities.
Disability Prejudice Ableism refers to the belief that those with physical or mental disabilities or handicaps are inferior to able-bodied people. Discrimination against the disabled is born of this belief and involves limiting the rights of disabled individuals to basic things that able-bodied people take for granted, such as adequate housing, health care, employment and education.

Key: Ladies and gentlemen, let me make this point right away: age limits are not fair! I want to vote, but I can’t do that at the age of sixteen. “I’m sorry, you are too young”, they sat. I’m not an adult until I’m nineteen. But when I buy a plane ticket, I have to pay the full fare. I am an adult although I’m just sixteen. At the age of sixteen I cannot join the army, but if I have to work, that will be for a full time. Ladies and gentlemen, I have a dream that children of my age will be able to live their childhood as normal as possible. I have a dream to have the right to live in peace, a dream that could never be realized unless the adults would care about us. Our grandparents were able to assume their responsibilities at an early age. How about us? Give us a chance to try do that and to prove it. I hope we’ll be able to express our opinions and feelings freely. I hope we’ll be able to show the adults that we can do things just as they do if not better. But keep us far from wars Thank you very much for your kind attention, ladies and gentlemen. Please sign the petition entitled DOWN WITH AGE LIMITS which is being circulated by my classmates. God bless you all!

becomes lighter. When you fill a pan of water, with ice cubes, you note that unmelted particles remain on the surface. The reason is that frozen water is lighter than water in liquid form. When water expands, it becomes ice and it exerts pressure. If you fill a glass bottle and put it in the freezer, the bottle breaks. As the frozen water expands, it exerts pressure on the glass bottle. Water molecules have a strong attraction to each other. The force of attraction is called cohesion. If you moisten two pocket mirrors and stick them together, you will not be able to pull them apart. The water molecules on the surface of the pocket mirrors attract each other.

Stress on first syllable Most two-syllable nouns and adjectives have stress on the first syllable. 2. Stress on last syllable Most two-syllable verbs have stress on the last syllable. 3. Stress on penultimate syllable (second from the end): Words ending in ‘ic’ , ‘tion’, and ‘sion 4. Stress on ante-penultimate syllable (third from the end): Words ending in ‘cy’, ‘ty’, ‘phy’; ‘gy’ 5. Polysyllabic words (words with many syllables) These usually have more than one stress, i.e., primary and secondary stress. Often such words contain a prefix (as with ‘inter’ and ‘anti’ in international and antibiotic). This is common with many long technical words. 6. Compound words (words with two parts) If the compound is a noun, the stress goes on the first part. eg: greenhouse, blackbird. If the compound is an adjective, the stress goes on the second part; e.g., bad-tempered, old-fashioned If the compound is a verb, the stress goes on the second part, e.g., understand, overlook.

The students have to write a short autobiography about Michael Faraday, using the given information. Key answers: The greatest name in the history of electrical research in the first half of the nineteenth century is that of Michael Faraday. His career furnishes a classical example of a poor boy who made good as a scientist. He was born in Newington, Surrey, England in 1791. Faraday was the third son of a poor blacksmith who moved to London to mend his fortunes. Faraday never went beyond elementary grades in school. He dropped out and was apprenticed to London bookbinder at an early age. Endowed with the curiosity that is the characteristic of the true scientist, young Michael started to read some of the books he was binding. He saved money to attend lectures on science. Later, he worked as a laboratory assistant to Sir Humphry Davy, one of the famous scientists at the time. His duties included bottle washing and other disagreeable chores. Sir Humphry Davy was jealous, so Michael quitted his job and spent the rest of his time doing research and teaching. Faraday married Sarah Barnard, a Silversmith daughter who was a devoted wife. He became a professor of chemistry in 1833. He discovered the principle of the dynamo, and then the radio waves in 1845. He studied electrolysis and introduced scientific terms such as “anode” and “cathode”. Though Faraday’s electrical discoveries represent his chief contributions to science, he also did important work in chemistry.
The students should be able to write autobiography and use what they have learned in this file in this autobiography.
