Before Watching
-
Have students do a five-minute "free-write" in which they write
and draw everything they know about wolves. Encourage students
to brainstorm freely so that they will record the first images
that come to mind when they think of wolves. Their ideas might
include wolf behavior, habitat, and prey, as well as
stereotypical images of wolves or how wolves are portrayed in
literature and popular culture. Talk with students about how
some of the portrayals might have originated and review the role
of the wolf as a top predator and its role in the balance of
nature. As they watch, have students look for information that
confirms or contradicts their previewing descriptions.
After Watching
-
Revisit students' ideas about wolves. What else would they add
now?
