In this lesson, students look at how gender stereotyping may discourage young women from becoming involved in politics.

In this lesson, students learn how the media construct reality by studying the families portrayed on television, and comparing them to the real-life families they know: their own, and those of their peers.

This lesson encourages children to explore the differences between their real families and TV families by imagining how their own families might be portrayed on a television show.

In this lesson, students identify the differences between TV families and real families by analyzing the conventions used by TV shows; and by comparing the problems and actions of television families to real world families.
