Grades 7–12

 

The world is colorful and every person is unique. Family portraits from the past often reveal a completely different image. Which expectations did people have to fulfill? How did this make them feel? 

 

The pupils investigate ideas about gender roles up to the present time and understand how these change and which stereotypes are still effective today. People who haven’t conformed to society’s expectations also have their say. These examples should inspire the pupils and encourage us to develop images of a diverse society that reflects our own ideas and experience.
