This is a complete revision PPT for the entire Families and Household’s topic for ‘A’ Level Sociology AQA Spec. There are 23 slides of content. The content of these slides is detailed enough to enable students to write a 20-mark essay on any Families and Households essay title that comes up in the final exam and provide suitable material for the 10 markers. Students could print these slides and use them as separate revision cards or they could be printed as a complete revision booklet. The slides are designed to help the students break their revision up into manageable chunks – and the use of colourful, highlighted text and relevant pictures should help engage visual learners. I also use my EPIC revision PPTs in class – students have the booklet version open in front of them while I am teaching in addition to longer textbooks and other resources. The slides contain relevant and up to date statistics from the ONS, the 2023 British Social Attitudes Survey and the 2021 Census – material that textbooks written in time for the ‘new’ spec in 2016 do not contain. Please note EPIC revision PPTs for Crime & Deviance, Beliefs in Society, Methods in Context and Sociological Theory are also available in my TES shop.

A thorough and comprehensive revision booklet for the theory and methods sections of the paper 1 and 3 exams, which covers all content they need to know. It includes information for students, and 13 activities ranging from crosswords to essay planning.

They worked really well last year to make sure that students were revising early on, and I’m sure they will be as succesful this year too. I will be using this as home learning for my students over the coming half term, and have included a schedule with their deadlines which can easily be adapted to suit your class May need the latest version of word or you might need to play around with the formatting. I’ve also uploaded as a pdf to avoid any trouble. I really hope this is useful to you!

The relationship between theoretical perspective and preference for particular research methods and sources of data. e.g. Positivism and quantitative data Interpretivism and qualitative data The powerpoint contains the links to the student booklets and gapped areas for them to complete from the presentation as you work through the lessons.

Quiz involving 4 rounds - Sociologists, studies, picture round and pot luck. The Joker card enables a group to double their points (groups must declare their joker before the round starts). For a really competitive group 'The Devil Cards' work well, enabling half of another teams points to be stolen! The document has the answers for each round included - make sure these are removed before use with a class! Note - there are a couple of ‘suicide’ questions included, as the quiz was created pre-spec 2015. These need to be removed and replaced as Suicide is no longer in the Spec.

I have adapted these revision cards from some that were put on TES by another member. They were originally part of revision for Crime and Methods in Context. I print these as two slides per page and back to back so that they can be laminated and cut out to create flash cards hence the slides being ordered differently - they print fine! As with most of my resources they are colour coded (green for theory, red for sociologist, purple for concepts). Please review my resources and let me know if I've made any typing errors or if you have any ideas on how to improve these.
