American Born Chinese

In this unit you read the novel, American Born Chinese. Throughout this unit we explored the idea of Stereotypes and how they were represented in the story, and how they are displayed in everyday life.

I completed vocabulary and comprehension exercises in your Reader’s Notebook for each chapter, and created your own graphic novel, or comic book, as a final project.

Enduring Understanding: (These are questions you should be able to answer at the end of the unit. You should write a sentence to address each.)

How can you stay true to yourself in the face of judgment from your peers?
Why do stereotypes exist? Are they ever accurate? Can a stereotype ever be positive?
How do stereotypes affect all of us?
