•Detailed lesson with lots of scaffolding based on adaptive teaching that helps students identify, explain, analyse and evaluate Parsons’ two irreducible functions of the family: primary socialisation and the stabilisation of adult personalities (the Warm Bath Theory).
•Lesson objectives: to identify functionalist Parsons’ two irreplaceable functions of the [nuclear] family; to explain how the family might perform these two functions; to analyse and evaluate the two functions of the family identified by Parsons.
•Covers the following key terms: Stabilisation of adult personalities (the Warm Bath Theory), the Warm Bath Theory analogy and Idealisation.
•Covers the following sociologists: Parsons (with reference to feminist and Marxist Warm Bath Theory).
•Makes reference to the following key terms students should already know, to promote a spiral curriculum: Breadwinner – Patriarchy – Exploit – Expressive role – Instrumental role – The division of labour – Emotional labour – Domestic labour – Functionalism – Value consensus – Consensus theory – Social cohesion – Organic analogy – Culture – Norms – Values – Socialisation – Primary socialisation – Conventional nuclear family – Family form – Traditional domestic division of labour – Segregated conjugal roles – Agency of socialisation – Agent of socialisation.
•Retrieval practice: a DO NOW starter recapping Murdock’s four functions of the family
•Modelling and worked examples for an item 4 marker to show students what a full response looks like.
•DEEPER THINKING questions
•4 marker ’perspective’ question with detailed scaffolding to help students answer it.
•ANSWERS TO MAIN ACTIVITIES AND DO NOW INCLUDED.
•Resources can be found at the end of the PPT.
