To give you a sense of how our Learning Guides can be used by teachers as lesson plans and by parents to supplement school curriculum or for homeschooling, we have set out below one of the discussion questions from the Learning Guide to Fiddler on the Roof.
Tevye loved his daughters but he was also subject to the traditions and prejudices of his culture. How did this play out in the movie? For example, why could Tevye accept the marriage of Tzeitel to Motel (the poor tailor) and the marriage of Hodel to Perchik (the penniless agitator) but not the marriage of Chava to Fyedka? He told us. What did he say?
The Learning Guide to Fiddler on the Roof also contains sections on Benefits of the Movie, Possible Problems, Helpful Background, Discussion Questions, Links to the Internet, and Bridges to Reading.
