The file includes the following: Blank board games sheet. (publisher) Sociology themed game counters (publisher) Instructions for students to make the board game (powerpoint) Question cards templates for students to cut out. (word) Students enjoy making their own games. I give each group a topic (The family or crime and deviance for example) and get them to make a game based around this. Give each group scissors, glue, an A3 game board on card and the resources and they make it. It may take 2-3 lessons but well worth it. Students then get the opportunity to play theirs and others in the lesson after. Great way of students to check understanding of topics and turn the learning on its head. Students have to go through the book to formulate questions, Great for revision without them even realising it! If you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask. Can be used in any subject but the counters are specific to Sociology.

This sheet contains a huge number of names as a spider diagram, Laid out a students wanted, where each theorist falls and under which topic. Took an extremely long time to make!

All the resources you need for a Sociology theories display. I have included: 4 theory overview sheets (Marxism, Feminism, Functionalism and New Right). On each of those sheets is some information regarding: Theory’s view about society, key sociologists linked to that theory, views on the family and views on crime. These can be changed if you study a different topic as they are in publisher format. I’ve also made them in Word format following constructive feedback! I have also included pictures and pieces of information, quotes etc that I used for my display. I do not own the rights to the pictures and so to make it clear, you are paying for the overview sheets and the information I have produced. I have included the picture about how I laid it out, but you may wish to lay it out differently. I also backed on different coloured paper to highlight the different theories. Currently working on Interactionism and Postmodernism. Alternatively/additionally, you can print off just the overview sheets to hand out to students. Took roughly 6 hours to do make all of the resources so asking for £8. Once it’s all up though it will last for years and won’t need updating. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

3 booklets containing information about essay structure for each question type, lists of questions for each question type, and specification overview. All three exams are covered in the three booklets. Questions have been taken from elsewhere or thought up by myself. We print each booklet in different colours. Front page will need to be changed to suit the school and examination date. All in PDF format, sorry I don’t seem to have the publisher/word versions any more. Please note: This is NOT a content revision booklet, it is just for structure of exam questions, specification overview and practice questions. Took roughly 8 hours to make the booklets. Last year over half our students achieved A*/A in A Level Sociology (2 were predicted an A/A*).

A revision book for the first unit 'Understanding Social Processes' of the GCSE WJEC Sociology exam. Activities for students to work through in order to help them prepare for the exam.

A workbook to complete in order to summarise each of the studies needed as part of the OCR GCSE Psychology course. APRCE template for each study.

A lesson about how the roles of women have changed in the family and why they have changed. More concentration on the latter. There is also some debate about whether feminism is still needed or not by looking at improvements in women's lives and what is still to be improved. File includes: Powerpoint (with links to appropriate video clips) I like to start the lesson by showing Meghan Trainor 'Dear Future Husband' to allow students to try to guess what we will be studying in the lesson. Within the powerpoint there is also recent adverts to compare to the 1950s to show how little has changed. Also a worksheet on adverts from the 1950s. Students have to find the point of the advert, what has improved for women, and what hasn't improved to help them come to a conclusion about whether feminism is still needed. There is also a document from the Good Housekeeping Guide to show how women were expected to behave in the 1950s. Kahoot link. I have also provided a Kahoot link (in powerpoint) for a fun quiz on the family (overview). Students love Kahoot! Students loved this lesson and worked well with year 10-11. Great for the family topic or feminism in general. Could be adapted for A Level. Any feedback is greatly received.

This is a sorting activity. Students put into groups and have to sort the slips into Approach, Name and Year, Aim, Procedure (1,2, or 3 slips), Results (1, 2 or 3 slips), Group design, Research method, 1 advantage and 1 disadvantage. There are also 7 red herrings that don't fit in any of the groups. To help students, keep checking their red herring pile. Tell them if they are right or wrong on the red herrings every so often. Students had great fun doing this. I put up a prize for the winning team. Took around 45 mins but students enjoyed it and took a lot from it. There are two attached files: one in colour for the teacher to distinguish between the different approaches) and one in black and white for students to sort through. Great for paper 3, comparing the different approaches and classic studies. It covers, Sherif, Baddeley, Raine, Watson and Rayner and Rosenhan Any questions, message me. Thanks

Students have to put them in a flow diagram. Students can also add their own speech and thoughts to the bubbles on the pictures. (Correct order of the stages included as a picture). Can be used for GCSE or A Level. All exam boards use Cohen's Status Frustration in Crime and Deviance topic. I am looking at providing more of these cartoons to illustrate different theories.
