A Doll’s House Learner Portfolio
In the first unit for Language & Literature this year, we had studied and learned about feminism, patriarchy, and gender roles through the play, A Doll’s House. Throughout this unit, we had done a few assignments in order to broaden our knowledge about the issues, and relating it back into A Doll’s House, understanding why and how each character behaves in the way they behave.
One assignment that we did was presentations relating to different themes in A Doll’s House. Each groups had different topics to present about, such as Henrik Ibsen, Norway, A Doll’s House, Realism and Naturalism, Ibsen’s Other Plays, Women in the Victorian Period, Class in Victorian Society. In my group, we presented about Class in the Victorian Society, explaining how people from different classes had different treatments, and how it greatly affected many people.

Open in new tab Another assignment that we had worked on is a reading journal for A Doll’s House. Although we could just watch the play to understand the concept of A Doll’s House, reading the play would also help us understand and analyze the actions and personalities of each character even further. Reading the play would also help us understand different themes shown in the play, by the characters’ actions and dialogue being depicted through text. While reading through the play, we had to analyze different themes shown, such as the relationships between men and women, masculinity and femininity, patriarchy and feminism, class and money, and other events shown in the play that we found interesting. Our analysis of each play would then be written in the reading journal.

Other than analyzing A Doll’s House, we had also taken notes on The Feminist Lens. In this assignment, we learned about definitions relating to feminism, what feminists believe, and our own reflections and opinions. This helped us understand how women who grew up differently, or women with different perspectives, can also have similar ideas and how we can see that they are all treated similarly in a way, just because of their gender.
