Social Mobility

I have to reflect (in 2000 words) on similarities and differences between me, my parents and my grandparents. No problem. I have to do this in regard to various stratification variables and consider to what extent I am upwardly or downwardly mobile. I also have to explain why any differences exist and what caused them. I'm not exactly certain I understand what all this means. I am looking for clarification and/or examples of stratification variables and what is meant by upwardly or downwardly mobile. Thank you
