What educators are saying
Great resource for my indigenous literature and writing class. Students were engaged and touched by the content.
This resource helped my students better understand the policies in Rabbitproof Fence as well as aided in facilitating important discussions.
Description
If you are teaching your students Australian history - or even American history - then the Rabbit Proof Fence is sure to inspire deep conversation about assimilation policies that forcibly removed many indigenous children from their families between 1910-1970. This film presents the true story of Molly, Daisy and Gracie, three aboriginal girls who run away from a government settlement to return to their aboriginal families.
The Rabbit Proof Fence Movie Guide provides a step-by-step guide and ANSWER KEY for the teacher. Students will complete ACTIVE film viewing with 26 movie questions, a graphic organizer and reflective prompts inspiring them to cultivate insights about the movie.
Your students will remain engaged and thinking as they develop their media literacy. Be prepared for a lively class discussion after reading watching the movie. Enjoy!
