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.

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.

2 lessons that cover the Functionalist approach to the nuclear family. Including Murdock and Parsons.

New Spec- 9-1 This lesson looks at an introduction to Functionalist viewpoint on the nuclear family by looking at the work of G.P Murdock. Students look at the four functions of the nuclear family. Next lesson will be Parsons. If you download please review.

This lesson compares 1950s to 2000s households. Looks at Elizabeth Botts conjugal roles with a considersation of her sample size and if this is a generalisable study. Lesson also uses Talcott Parsons “roles” as an alternative viewpoint. Students then plan their own research into conjugal roles.

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

Lesson 13 looks at power distribution in the family. There are 2 video clips that look at domestic violence in the UK. Students then complete some comprehension questions.

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.

5 lessons that introduce (start of GCSE) or revise/refresh (before assessment/GCSE) the main sociological theories of Functionalism (including Parson and Durkheim, Marxism (including Karl Marx) and Feminism.

A knowledge organiser prepared for the AQA New Spec, but can suit any . Whilst we know Studying Society no longer exists as a separate topic, we have opted to teach a mini research methods unit (soon to be uploaded) after the introduction. This means students have an awareness of the methods and can then feed it into the other units. This is the knowledge organiser for the mini unit. If you download please leave a review.

This is a mid unit assessment that looks at research methods and the introduction to Sociology topic. I have included the feedback power point that is also the mark scheme, it provides WAGOLLS for each of the longer questions. I have also included our purple pen DIRT feedback sheet, and our Sociology assessment file tracker. Please leave feedback

AQA New Specification 9-1- Lesson 3- Consolidation looking at Functionalist, Marxist and Feminist Perspectives. Ideal for Y11 revision, or to leave as cover. My group needed this as they struggled with the key perspectives.

New Spec 9-1. Can be one lesson if you don’t want to use the Cutting Edge documentary.

AQA New Specification 9-1- Lesson 6- Looking at deschooling, home-schooling and Summerhill School.

Planned for the new 9-1 AQA specification. This lesson is priced low as it is mainly a research task lesson. Students begin with the usual knowledge retention quiz, followed by a key terms match up to provide them with the basic keywords for this area. Students then complete a research task which has a challenge activity built into it. The aim is to give students 2 lessons and homework to complete this. The unit so far is very writing heavy so i like to build in some independent activities. Hence the low price of the resource.

Aimed at the new 9-1 spec AQA, but suitable for any exam board by tweaking a couple of slides. Lesson looks at what to expect in the exam, how to tackle a 12 mark question, what is sociology, how is it different to psychology and journalism, and an activity to focus on the key concepts of culture, norms and values. The lesson aims to set Y10 students up ready for the GCSE.

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. The homework task refers to a knowledge organiser than can be bought in my store. However, the homework task can be completed without it. It’s just our departmental push on the use of them throughout the unit. Lesson 3- Looking at Primary, Secondary, Qual & Quan data. Considering how studies are peer reviewed and evaluated. Exam practice with model answer. Homework Task also prepared.
