A first lesson that I use in GCSE Sociology, can also be used for Alevel as well. The idea is that students are trapped on a desert island and they have to rebuild a society. This has been adapted for covid, but instead of sections you could split the 4 areas into 4 key roles: priminister, education minister, crime minister & legal minister and get students to be responsible for each part.
Each section touches on some key areas from the sociology specification so gets students talking/ thinking sociologically.
There is a reflection page at the end which again brings up some good key questions for students to consider. I found this useful when teaching about sociological theories.
Revision summaries of the whole of the families topic for Alevel AQA Sociology. They are structured as powerpoint slides so that you can go through them crash course style or print them out for students to annotate.
There are 5 powerpoints that split the families topic into the sections:
Perspectives
Family diversity
Roles
Childhood
Demography
