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

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.

Knowledge organiser created for New AQA spec (9-1) but suitable for other exam boards. Please leave a review if you purchase.

Please leave a review if you download! I will be creating one for each of the units. I have created a Keythinkers (only) work booklet for students. I am planning to issue this over the Easter Holidays. Students use Cornel note taking strategies to show their understanding of each of the Key texts. There are several exam questions relating to each of the key texts to develop students confidence in using these texts.

2 lessons from my Introduction to sociology unit. These two lessons look at Marxism- including communism, capitalism, proletariat, bourgoise and revolution. 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.

2 lessons from my introduction to Sociology unit. These two lessons concentrate on the basic knowledge of Functionalism, and introduce Emilie Durkheim and Talcott Parsons. This is therefore suitable to introduce students to these key thinkers, or as a revision lesson.

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

Attached are the learning journeys for the AQA Sociology GCSE whole course. I was asked to create these by a customer who had downloaded some of my lessons and wanted to use them for the whole course. These are printed and stuck into the students books at the start of each topic. You can edit and tweak these to suit your own course. They are great, not only at the start of the topic area, but provide students with a revision checklist. Students can cross out/highlight lesson areas when they have revised them. I will eventually add all of the units to accompany these learning journeys. Introduction to sociology, education and social stratification can be found in my shop. Introduction to Sociology Research Methods (mini unit) Paper 1- Families Paper 1- Education Paper 2- Social Stratification Paper 2- Crime & Deviance

My old specification lesson resources for the families unit. They are a great set of resources that I am tweaking and adapting for the new spec, but a (cheap) starting point for non-specialists/trainees.

These are my old AQA specification resources. They still cover all of the same content, and have assessments, group activities planned into them. So lots of lesson ideas. I am in the middle of tweaking and adapting these to the new specification, but these lessons are a great starting point for a non-specialist (and cheap!)

GCSE 9-1 Specification Paper 2 Crime and Deviance. These are all my Crime & Deviance lessons bundled together. This covers all of the theory content. This bundle does not include the final 5 lessons that are looking at patterns and trends. I no longer teach this unit, so haven’t completed the unit, but I have had several requests to put the lessons into a bundle to make it cheaper for you. Includes knowledge organiser so suitable for a revision resource Please review if you purchase :)

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.

GCSE Sociology 9-1 Specification This unit of work follows the Introduction unit. I use this as a quick intro to research methods, so that throughout the units I can embed/recall this information like in the exam. This is the same unit, as the bundle in my shop. I am putting it into 1 resource, so I can bundle the units together to save you money. Please review if you download

BTEC 9-1 Spec, GCSE Specification. Planned for AQA, but suitable for other exam boards. This unit is the same as the bundle currently in my shop. However, I needed to create a single unit resource, to be able to bundle all of the units together :) Planned as in introduction to Sociology. These lesson introduce the key sociological arguments, so that in later units you can get straight on with applying the theory to the unit. Please review if you download.
