Welcome!
Stratifications Stratification is just a fancy word for range. If you can create a cluster of characteristics (ascribed or achieved) then that is probably a stratification. The grade levels in school are an example of strata. K - Doctorate is the stratification for education.
Sensory Project There are TWO components to the Sensory Project. The first is looking at the overall socio-economic status you have been assigned. What does the group have in common based on the categories provided. The second part is creating a fictious life for your assigned character based on the information you learned about their assigned status. This will be looking at how wealth plays an impact in our society. Don't neglect either component as both will have ramficiations on your grade.
