Respond to the following case scenario: The teacher matches your daughter with two boys, who are in middle school, for a chemistry experiment. The students talk about how to divide up the work. One of the boys says to the other boy, 'You measure the chemicals and I'll light the burner. Then he says to your daughter, 'You can take notes — girls have better handwriting than boys.' Your daughter loves chemistry and wants to take a more active role, but she starts to question her ability to conduct the experiment.

Questions:

• What would you tell her to build her confidence?
• What might she say to the boys in her group?
• How does this case scenario relate to discrimination?
• Why is discrimination in this case negative?
