Before Watching

Ask students to write down anonymous answers to the
following questions: Have you thought about your weight in the
last day? week? month? year? almost never? Have students note
whether they are male or female. Collect students' answers and
tally them by gender. Report the findings to the class and
analyze the results.
-
As they watch, have students note ideas some people have about
ideal body weights.
After Watching
-
Discuss what students saw regarding ideal body weight. Did
students relate to anything in the show? Where else do they see
those attitudes? What other attitudes exist about weight?
