Here are four (edited) scenes surrounding modern social issues. They are good springboards for discussions on these issues, as well as exploring relationships where one character is in a position of power compared to the other(s).
These scenes are:
A - "Mad Men", where the experienced secretary (Joan) shows the new girl (Peggy) around her incredibly sexist 1940s office.
B - "Look Back in Anger", where a boring Sunday morning leads to a domestic argument.
C - "Juno", where teenager (Juno) has to speak to her parents about the fact that she's pregnant.
D - "American History X", where the headteacher (Sweeney) throws a life line to a student who's out of control (Danny)
There is also a written assessment task to draw together the pupil's understanding of the scenes.
7 D_____ in a W_____ ?
Useful as a quiz round or as a starter in a maths lesson.
There are two puzzles here both with answers. The font is oversized so it can be reduced (2-to-a-page) and still be legible in an exercise book.
