Background
Information
for Teachers
Before Lesson
• Post Learning Goals and Success Criteria for this lesson.
• Have the Anecdotal Observation Template (BLM #2) ready on a clipboard to
use while students are working collaboratively.
• Preview the YouTube video Cammi Granato and Angela James Inducted
into the Hockey Hall of Fame to understand the issues that are shared and
to prepare meaningful critical thinking questions.
• Have an understanding of the issues related to women being inducted into
the Hockey Hall of Fame (e.g., less men inducted due to women being
inducted; women do not play as often and therefore have to have more years
of playing time to be considered for recognition; the difference between
men’s and women’s hockey; less prominence and recognition of women’s
hockey compared to men’s; less prominence of women’s hockey outside of
Canada; etc.).
Step A:
Assessment
as Learning
Lesson Note: This lesson starts with a review of Lesson 2, “The Female Wayne
Gretzky: The Story of Angela James, Part 1.” Please review that lesson to get
some background on and insights into the learning experiences that this lesson
will build upon.
ACTIVATING PRIOR KNOWLEDGE
Teacher Talk: We are going to view a video blog of one person’s perspective
about Angela James’s induction into the Hockey Hall of Fame. As you watch
and listen, consider his point of view and the issues that he raises. Also think
about what you know and understand about Angela James’s life.
Focused Viewing: Show YouTube video Cammi Granato and Angela James
Inducted Into the Hockey Hall of Fame,youtube.com/watch?v=RBMc06oqdRw.
Facilitation Notes: There are several social and sport-related issues that are
explicitly and implicitly noted in the video blog, including the following:
• men’s versus women’s hockey (visibility, validity, etc.)
• controversy around men hockey players who were not inducted due to
women being inducted
• women’s role in hockey and the Hall of Fame
• corporate sponsorship of men’s versus women’s hockey
• the lack of professional women’s hockey
