AFLW - Investigating Identity

This lesson explores key themes showcased in the AFLW ‘Player Stories’ vlog-doc: ‘A New Hero – Sabrina Frederick-Traub’. Students will complete a ‘Think-Pair-Share’ visible thinking routine to establish what they understand about identity, then view ‘A Strong Foundation’ and frame their viewpoints about stereotypes by responding in groups to a set of prompts. Students will share their understanding of gender stereotypes in a ‘Stand on the line’ activity, then work with their peers to identify the ways Sabrina overcame the stereotypes she faced as a female Australian rules footballer.
