Sociology A level is one of those subjects where there is so much that is new and quite overwhelming to your average seventeen year old. It’s not surprising that for many they can quickly find their head in a spin and the topic content become a confusing, irretrievable mush. If only there was a way to make it more manageable for such learners, to lessen the anxiety and to make this amazing subject more doable. This was exactly the challenge that led to the creation of **‘Make it Stick!’. ** This pack includes: - **32 activities covering the topics within the Education and Families and Households unit of work.** Each activity highlights core knowledge to be known by students and key test questions to help focus revision,classroom testing and recap of previous learning to check for understanding and embed material. - **student schedule.** A sample calendarised schedule for using with students to help them plan and prepare for these purposeful activities **- teacher guide.** With a detailed explanation of how to use these resources in the classroom, with suggested strategies to support revision, embedding knowledge and developing A02 skills such as analysis and evaluation. **This is more than a revision tool which helps to breakdown key content into areas of focus, a kind of PLC or knowledge organiser. It is more than a starter activity (for 32 lessons minimum) to help bridge learning. It is more than a device for assessing learning and clarifying misunderstandings. It helps to structure question and answer sessions and deepen discussions around ideas. It also encourages the interrogation of ideas promoting deeper analysis, evaluation which in turn helps to structure the writing of answers.** A great resource for **differentation **- to scaffold the essentials for the borderline C student, but also for offering stretch and supporting higher thinking for the A/A* students.
