Get students to describe their identity in 50 words and then raising these questions:
o Which categories of gender, ethnicity, race, religion, age, and so on do you think you identify
with most? (Which do they put towards the front of their sentences?)
o When do you think children become aware of these categories?
o When do children begin to self-label and say ‘I am a girl’ or ‘I am Indonesian’?
Students privately chat their description to the teacher, without mentioning their names. Teacher
shares the chat and let the other friends guess whose description that is.
