    This document provides information about a history lesson on biases in Ancient Israel and Israel today. The objective is for 9th grade students to understand biases by observing them in media coverage of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and demonstrating this understanding by writing a paragraph on how biases affect their daily lives. Students will view videos on the conflict and discuss whether biases are present and from what side. They will complete a graphic organizer comparing the videos. For homework, students will write the analysis paragraph which will be graded using a rubric. The lesson fits with studying how the media portrays potential biases in the ongoing conflict region.
