Detailed lesson with lots of scaffolding based on adaptive teaching that helps students recap functionalist views of society and identify Murdock’s four functions of the family, explain using examples how the family might perform each function, and criticise and analyse them by considering how they might benefit individuals and society as a whole.

Starter activity recaps functionalist views of society with a true or false retrieval task, with answers.
Includes a key term sheet with definitions for the lesson.
Includes an around the room card sort on Murdock’s four functions
Includes eight image based progress checks for whole class assessment for learning.
Includes 4 marker item question practice with success criteria, sentence starters and an extension question.
Includes deeper thinking prompts and stretch and challenge tasks throughout to support adaptive teaching.
