To sell something or tell something Creative techniques: be cool, other kids have/do it, humor, don’t be geeky, be sexy, even more risky
- Show videos and talk about advertising techniques.
- When we think about girls and movies the first thing that comes to my mind is the Disney princesses. Who is this? What is her story? What about those ladies at the bottom right? Are they beautiful like Cinderella? How do they look? Is this how mean, evil people are usually shown? Are ugly people always mean? Are beautiful people always nice?
- Who is this? What is her story? Anything interesting about Ariel? How was her life under the sea? Why did she give up her family and friends? For the prince. Of course, she chose to give up everything that was important to her for the prince. What do you think about that choice?
- Poor Snow White, taking care of those seven little guys. She works so hard. What terrible thing happens to Snow White? Wasn’t there an evil queen who wanted to kill Snow White? How does the movie end? Who saves her? The prince. Are we starting to see a pattern in these Disney movies? What is the reality for young girls and women? Do they wait for the prince to save them? What else could real girls do to improve their lives? What about going to school, working hard, having their own dreams and goals?
- Who has or had dolls? What kind of dolls? Barbie, Bratz, American Girl, others? What do girls do with these dolls? What do we learn from playing with dolls?
- What do you notice first about these dolls? Do these Bratz look like real girls that you know? Would it be smart for young girls to wear this much make up? Would it be smart for young girls to wear shorts/skirts this short? How many young girls wear shoes with high heels?
- What do you notice about these dolls? What would happen if they had to bend over to pick up the things on the floor? Is the Christmas outfit realistic? I wonder if Ms. Clause would be cold in that outfit.
