How would someone with a hearing impairment manage this? Could an older person do this?) · enact non-stereotypical practices in class work roles · discuss, role-play or draw responses to scenarios (What if only boys could use the playground?) · create a collage of media representations of stereotyping and discuss · analyse gendered work roles in various familiar settings (carer roles at home and school) and synthesise conclusions about gender and work roles (poster, annotated mural, cartoon) |
