BTEC National Unit 1 Level 3 Looking at housing conditions and how this can impact PIES. There is an hour documentary and worksheet at the end of the lesson which is optional.

A new unit of work using the PSHE association mapping structure for the new 2020 Relationship, Sex and Health Education area. This unit is aimed at Year 7. But suitable for any KS3 group. Lesson 7 looks at students considering the ingredients to a healthy relationship. Students then decide on dealbreakers, and touch on domestic violence (aimed at Year 7 so didn’t want to make it too much).

A great unit of work that looks at religion and chocolate. It firstly starts with how chocolate was used in rituals during Mayan and Aztec ceremonies, followed by the Cadbury brothers who started chocolate shops due to their Quaker beliefs. Finishing with Fairtrade. Lessons are bundled together and sold for a low price as elements of the lessons refer to “levels” language for their differentiation- would take a matter of minutes to tweak. A really fun unit in the run up to Christmas or Easter, or for primary school students who may be studying Chocolate/Fairtrade as a topic area.

A bundle of KS3 lessons that look at the nature of suffering, why we suffer and studying those who help people who are suffering. Excellent lessons and worksheets. Bundled together for a low price because they still use “level” language. Will take a matter of minutes to change this language.

This is a mini research unit that will be taught ahead of the units (after the introduction unit). It should take approximately 11 lessons to go through the basic research methods. I am aware this is no longer necessary to be taught as an explicit unit, however we feel they need the basic knowledge to be able to answer the questions in the different units. Lesson 2 looks at what a pilot study is and encourages students to pilot a questionnaire. There is a gap filler task for the sampling techniques and 3 exam questions with model answers. Please review if you purchase

A small assessment that encourages students to apply both skills and knowledge to the research methods unit.

New Spec 9-1 This lesson looks as canalisation, gender socialisation and the key thinkers Delphy & Leonard.

This lesson looks at Young and Willmott’s Symmetrical Family theory (Key Thinkers). It is evaluated using Oakley and several other sociologists. Students then plan and answer a 12 mark essay question. I have then included the progress checkpoint (low-stakes, open book mini assessment) that follows in the next lesson.

A lesson that introduces the key perspective of Marxism. This lesson is part 1 of 2 parts. The idea is for students to imagine themselves as workers, then have the standard deductions taken from their wage. The idea of this task is to get students to see society as Marx did (my students tend to struggle the most with Marxism because they aren’t workers or have a clue about the cost of living.) The lesson then moves on to introduce Marx and Capitalism and Bourgeoise. The next lesson will look at the Proletariat and Marx theory of the need for a revolution. Students will then assess the strengths and weaknesses of this theory. This is a lesson suitable for either an introduction in sociology or as a refresher/revision for students before their GCSE. Suitable for non-specialists or a cover lesson. Leave feedback, email misskwaddington@outlook.com and recieve any single lesson of your choice for free.

Suitable as an introductory lesson, or a revision lesson before the exams. A cheap lesson as there wasn’t a great deal of teacher input. Students complete their quiz, do keyword bingo and then answer a series of exam questions. I like students to take a question at a time, mark a peers answer and then I live write in the powerpoint as the class create the perfect answer-including literacy! I then print the slides after the lesson and they stick these into their books.

A new unit of work using the PSHE association mapping structure for the new 2020 Relationship, Sex and Health Education area. This unit is aimed at Year 7. But suitable for any KS3 group. Lesson 3 looks at grooming and child sexual exploitation and is age appropriate for a KS3 or KS4 class. The lesson uses 3 video clips that are embedded into the slides, if you have an issue playing these back (for some reason some of my previous lessons had small issues) please don’t leave me a low review because of this issue, leave me a fair review with your email address and i will send you the videos straught away. Fingers crossed you should find the videos play well (I had IT help me :) ) The lesson also has a disclaimer for students to think sensibly about their contributions.

2 Lessons on different types of interview (structured, in-depth and group). Looking at 3 examples, followed by design challenge, exam practice and WAGOLL in lesson 1. Lesson 1 may take longer than one hour, particuarly if you use a full length episode to support them. Lesson 2 looks at group interviews with a summary worksheet and a further exam question and WAGOLL.

Observations: Participant/Non-Participant, Cover/Overt, Hawthorne Effect, Geoff Pearson Football Hooliganism. Lesson could take 2 hours if you use the documentary(ies) in full, links shared at the end as not used in the lesson. Students observe a clib from CBB and then attempt to write a report to highlight the difficulty with observations. Read resource and complete worksheet and then create their own observation. If you download please review.

A computer based lesson. The worksheet can either be printed (preferable) or shared via a school sharing platform and students can edit it on microsoft word. Powerpoint to assist students doing their websearches.
