This chart will help you write your division and classification essay: High School Stereotypes. This essay will be typed and have a format similar to "The Ways We Lie." You will have an introduction to your discussion, you will divide the type of students found in high school based on the film, you will find a quote from the film or other sources for a lead-in for each stereotype mentioned in your paper, you will define each stereotype, you will provide examples from both the film and your own experiences in high school, and you are to find your own way to rank/rate each type of student found in high school. The rate or ranking can be part of each section of your paper or you may want to rank/rate as a part of your conclusion. This essay does not have to be written in a formal manner. However, some of you may choose to do so. It may either be serious or humorous. Your audience will be 8th grade students preparing to enter high school. Make sure you have the MLA heading and title format.
