A3 DIRT Worksheet (15+ 5-star ratings!)
KS3 RE Units
Copyright Adam Godwin (2018)
Designed for teachers using the new AQA Sociology specification at KS5. Save significant amounts of money by buying these revision sessions in bundles!
This download contains one of a series of revision sessions that use a variety of mind-mapping, discussion and debate tasks to cover a section of the specification. It includes a fully animated revision session PowerPoint and a set of ‘silent debate’ A3 worksheets.
The topic of this revision session is: ‘The social distribution of crime and deviance by ethnicity, gender and social class, including recent patterns and trends in crime’.
This revision session features:
-A ‘grid of learning’ post-it task (to focus students on the day’s topic and refresh their memories of the basics)
-A 'competitive mind-mapping task (which can be completed on the whiteboard or on A3 paper)
-A silent debate task (with 6 x A3 silent debate worksheets in an editable .doc file) [nb. allowing group conversation, instead of silence, is also an effective approach]
-Debates that ask students to move from one side of the room or the other and verbalise a defence of their position in response to a statement or rubric.
-A concluding ‘One thing I am still uncertain about…’ post-it question.
The revision sessions can be used in a number of ways:
-As revision sessions during a revision period of term-time leading up to exams
-Sandwiched between lessons as they are taught throughout the year as a way of solidifying and assessing learning
This session can be purchased individually or as part of various bundles depending on your needs.
Please note: the cover picture depicts some of the activities that make up this revision session, the wording within those tasks is adapted to the topic specified above and may differ from the wording depicted. Contents and tasks may vary slightly between revision sessions. The cover photo is, however, a fair depiction of the contents of the lesson.

A3 DIRT Worksheet (15+ 5-star ratings!)
KS3 RE Units
This download is for a complete ICT-Suite Lesson for GCSE Sociology teachers using the new AQA specification (2017 onwards).
Specifically, it is designed to cover the ‘Crime and Deviance: Criminal and deviant behaviour’ section of the specification, which it refers to closely.
The download features:
-A double-sided A4 worksheet
-A PPT with instructions and AfL
Students will need access to computers which have presentation design software installed (e.g. PowerPoint, Prezi etc)
It can also be set as a homework task for students to complete at home.
Because the worksheet allows students to select from various topics, organised in terms of their difficulty, it is a clearly differentiated resource; it also features integrated peer assessment with clear assessment criteria.
It asks students to create presentation with quiz questions and lists differentiated options for them to choose from. The reverse of the A4 sheet features peer-assessment tables for students to rate one another’s work according to specified criteria.
The lesson should, ideally, use 40 minutes for students to create the presentation in pairs and then 20 minutes to quiz and peer assess one another. The worksheet is easily customisable to other topics.
For our other GCSE Sociology Resources please use this link: https://www.tes.com/resources/search/?&q=godwin86+gcse+sociology
Each resource contains 100-200 debate slides and a ‘randomiser’ function.
There are over 10 formats of debate contained in this bundle: all ask students to move from one side of the room to another to express their view.
Perfect for form-time, cross-curricular, critical thinking, tutor and form time, SMSC and debate clubs :)
