Elementary Lesson Plans
Work with students to create interview questions such as the following:

  • What roles do you have?
     
  • What kinds of activities are you involved in?

Have students create their own interview form by transcribing sentences onto a piece of lined paper, leaving space for them to record the answers they obtain. Have students interview a woman family member or friend about what her life is like today. Have students bring their interview results to class and work together to share the results. Have students compare how women's lifestyles today are different or similar from those many years ago.

This may be done formally in a class chart, or informally in a discussion. Discuss the impact that the Famous 5 had on women today by talking to students about such things as the ways in which the Famous 5 helped pass laws that gave women equal rights to vote, own property and sit in the Senate of Canada.
