A lesson about how the roles of women have changed in the family and why they have changed. More concentration on the latter.
There is also some debate about whether feminism is still needed or not by looking at improvements in women's lives and what is still to be improved.
File includes:
Powerpoint (with links to appropriate video clips)
I like to start the lesson by showing Meghan Trainor 'Dear Future Husband' to allow students to try to guess what we will be studying in the lesson.
Within the powerpoint there is also recent adverts to compare to the 1950s to show how little has changed.
Also a worksheet on adverts from the 1950s. Students have to find the point of the advert, what has improved for women, and what hasn't improved to help them come to a conclusion about whether feminism is still needed.
There is also a document from the Good Housekeeping Guide to show how women were expected to behave in the 1950s.
Kahoot link. I have also provided a Kahoot link (in powerpoint) for a fun quiz on the family (overview). Students love Kahoot!
Students loved this lesson and worked well with year 10-11. Great for the family topic or feminism in general.
Could be adapted for A Level.
Any feedback is greatly received.
