International women's day

on the 8th of march was International women's day. In class we did an activity to challenge the stereotypes and bias of both male and remale role within our society. We first had to get into same gender groups. we then wrote down the positives and challenges of the opposite gender. the boy wrote about the positives and challenge for females and the girl wrote about the positives and challenge for being male After we came up with some ideas in our group we then joined our groups with the opposite gender. something we noticed that the two lists were very different. women had more challenges. for example women had lots of challenges around the expectations of raising and get to sleep in and are father. We also said that a challenge for a male is that they have to provide for the family and have to always be brave. something we learnt from this is that male and females aren't considered equal in lots of aspects of life here is our activity we did.
