Tell students that they will continue to work with their groups to
investigate what they can find out about the roles and activities of
the Famous 5. They will also be looking for evidence of women's
lifestyles through learning about the Famous 5. Refer each group to
photographs and Readings from The
Famous 5 website, or print off samples from these pages. Many of the
sources reflect women's lifestyles and issues in the early 1900s, and
expand on the various roles and involvements of the Famous 5.
Suggestions are provided in the list of student resources.
Have students examine the
photographs and other sources on information.
Work with the class to
complete the following sentence stems:
-
I found out that Emily
Murphy's activities and roles included. . .
-
I found out that Henrietta
Muir Edwards' activities and roles included. . .
-
I found out that Louise
McKinney's activities and roles included. . .
-
I found out that Irene
Parlby's activities and roles included. . .
-
I found out that Nellie
McClung's activities and roles included. . .
Then have students look for
evidence of women's lifestyles in the early 1900s. Have them create a
word bank that describes different aspects of women's lifestyles in
the early 1900s. Students can be asked to create their word banks on
poster paper, and illustrate them.
Students may also be guided through the information in the
Analyzing a photograph student resource to help them examine the
photographs.
