Instructions for using your Knowledge OrganiserEvery school day you should be studying at least 1 section of your Knowledge Organiser (KO) for homework.

The timetable on the next page tells you which subjects you should be studying on which days (it doesn’t matter if you have that subject on that day or not, you should follow the timetable).

You are to use your exercise book to show the work you have done. Each evening you should start a new page and put the date clearly at the top.

You need to bring your KO and exercise book with you EVERYDAY to the academy.

Your parents should tick off your homework every evening using the grid in your KO on page 4. Parents should also sign off your reading using the reading log on page 5, this will be checked in your library lesson.

Your KO and exercise book will be checked regularly in form time, failure to show homework for ALL FIVE days of the week will result in an after school detention that day.

You will also be tested in your lessons on knowledge from the organisers.

PresentationYou should take pride in how you present your work: • Each page should be clearly dated at the top left hand side with

Subject 1 written in the middle. • Half way down the page a line should divide it in two with Subject 2

written above the dividing line. • Each half of the page should be neatly filled with evidence of self-

testing. There should be an appropriate amount of work.• Failure to show pride in your presentation or wasting space on your

page with large writing or starting a number of lines down will result in a

negative point.

• Ask someone to write questions for you• Write your own challenging questions and

then leave it overnight to answer them the next day

• Create mindmaps• Create flashcards• Put the key words into new sentences • Look, cover, write and check• Mnemonics• Draw a comic strip of a timeline

• Use the ‘clock’ template to divide the information into smaller sections. Then test yourself on different sections

• Give yourself spelling tests• Definition tests• Draw diagrams of processes• Draw images and annotate/label them with

extra information• Do further research on the topic• Create fact files• Create flowcharts

Self-testingYou can use your KOs and book in a number of different ways but you should not just copy from the Knowledge Organiser into your book. Use the ‘How to self-test with the Knowledge Organiser’ booklet you were given to help you. It can also be

found here: http://www.bluecoatwollaton.co.uk/learning/knowledge-organisers/Below are some possible tasks you could do in your workbooks, no matter which tasks you do you should always check and

correct your work in a different coloured pen.

Atmosphere Similar to mood - the overall feelings /emotions (in a text)The direct address hook: you are spoken to directly and feel involved from the start.

The visual hook: appears to our sense of sight and creates a strong image of setting/character.

Tension A sense of heightened involvement, uncertainty, and interest an audience experiences as the climax of the action approachesThe subtle hook: this appears to your sense of curiosity. Who is she?

The end-as-the-beginning hook: opening a narrative at the climax, before showing progression to this point. Pathetic

fallacy

A literary technique (a form of personification) where the weather, or the atmosphere is given human emotions/characteristics by the writer

The atmospheric hook: this is descriptive, and could create a mood. D. Grammar focus - sentence structures

Science 1 Cells

D. Organelle FunctionNucleus Contains genetic information

Cytoplasm Where chemical reactions happen

Cell membrane Barrier which controls the substances that pass into and out of the cell

Cell wall Supports the cellMitochondria Where respiration (energy

making)happensRibosome Where protein synthesis (protein

making) happensChloroplast Absorbs light energy for

photosynthesisVacuole Contains cell sap to support the

cellPilli Allows the cell to attach to

things, like other cells

Flagella Allows the cell to move

Slime capsule Protects bacteria from drying out

E. Mitosis

Mitosis is how one cell divides to become two identical cells.This happens in growth, repair and asexual reproduction.First, the genetic material (DNA) inside the cell is copied. It is then split into two and two new nucleuses and then cells are formed around it.

G. Stem cells

These are undifferentiated cells, which means they haven’t turned into a specialised cell yet. These cells are really important because they can turn into any other type of cell, so they can be used in medical treatment for certain diseases.

Science 2 Particles

B. Key word Definition

Particle Everything is made up of these

SolidSubstance in a firm, stable shape

Liquid Substance that can flow

Gas Substance that expands to fill the space it’s in

Mass The amount of matter in a substance

Volume The amount of space that a substance takes up

Density The mass in a particular volume

Diffusion Liquid and gas particles spreading out

PressureThe force off an object pushing against something else

E. Gas pressure

Whenever a particle hits the side of the container it is in, there is pressure. If the container is large, and there are few particles, the pressure will be low. If the container is much smaller, but there are the same amount of particles as before, the pressure will increase.If there is too much pressure pushing from the inside of a container, it will explode.

D. Density calculation

Example: What is the density if the mass is 10g, and the volume is 5cm3

Density = 10 / 5Density = 2g/cm3

C. Collision TheoryParticles move around normally. In order for chemical reactions to happen, particles need to bump into one another. The more energy particles have, the more they move around, and the greater the number of reactions.

Symbolsymbolise

Something that represents something else

sacrifice To give something up that is of value

Altar A table used in the centre of worship in Christin services

Holy Communion

Part of Christian worship when bread and wine are shared as symbols of Jesus’ death on the cross

Sin To go against God’s commands

covenant Agreement

B. The BibleInterpretInterpretation

To bring out the meaning

Authority The power or right to give orders, make decisions and enforce obedience

Fundamentalist Believe that the Bible is perfect. Everything written inside is literally true with no mistakes

Liberal Believe the Bible is about people’s experience of God, but it was written by people, so has flaws and can’t be perfect

MetaphorMetaphorical

figure of speech that describes an object or action in a way that isn't literally true, but helps explain an idea

Scripture Holy books of a religion

Testament Agreement

Gospel Literally “Good news” . book about the life and teaching of Jesus

C. Holy Communion• Holy Communion, which is also called the Eucharist, Mass, the Lord’s Supper or the Divine Liturgy, is accepted by almost all Christians.• It is a re-enactment of the Last Supper, the final meal that Jesus Christ shared with his disciples (followers) before his arrest, and crucifixion. At the

meal Jesus ate bread and wine and instructed his disciples to do the same in memory of him.“And he took bread, gave thanks and broke it, and gave it to them, saying, ‘This is my body given for you; do this in remembrance of me.’ In the same way, after the supper he took the cup, saying, ‘This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which is poured out for

you.” Luke 20:21-22.• The people taking part drink a sip of wine (or grape juice) and eat a tiny piece of some form of bread, both of which have been consecrated (made holy by the priest. vicar saying a prayer).• Different churches have different ways of doing this, and different ways of understanding what it means, and what spiritual events are happening at the time, but they all do it as a reminder that Jesus sacrificed his life for mankind.

E. How different Christians interpret the BibleFundamentalist: If it is one of the Gospels, then it must have happened exactly as it says. Jesus has the power to heal, which is a sign that he was the Son of God.Liberal: Jesus might have had powers, but that is not what is important. The inner meaning of the story is what matters most, that Jesus can help cure spiritual blindness and help us be less selfish.

D. The Bible• The Bible is a library of 66 books written by different people in at different times and in different places.• The Old Testament consists of 39 books and was written between about 1200 and 100BC. The books are the same as in the Hebrew Tenakh (Jewish Scriptures).• The New Testament has 27 books and contains the life and teachings of Jesus and the early church.• All Christians believe the Bible- Is the Word of God- Has authority- Inspires them – helps them live their lives as Christians

“All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and

training in righteousness” 2 Timothy 3:16Christians differ on how they understand this should be interpreted.

Shape A two-dimensional enclosed space built with line Mark- making The different lines, patterns, and textures we create in an artwork using any media.

Proportion The size relationship between different elements E.g. height compared to width

Symmetry When one side of an object mirrors the other

Linear Using line only Pattern An arrangement of repeated or matching symbols or lines

Detail The smaller areas of your artwork Range The amount of variation between light and dark tone

Scale The size of an object (a whole) in relationship to another object (another whole)

3D Having, or appearing to have, length, depth and width

Texture How an object feels to touchAccuracy The extent to which one piece of work looks like another

Control How carefully you work with a specific media

Composition Where you place objects on the page Blending A seamless transition between two colours or tones

Media The materials you are creating your artwork with E.g. Pencil, oil pastel, paint.

Negative Space The empty or unfilled areas of a piece of artwork

Tone The lightness or darkness of something Balance The distribution of visual weights

B. Grades of PencilsPencils come in different grades. The softer the pencil the darker the tone

H= hard B= black (soft)

In art, the most useful pencils will be 2B and 4B for shadingIf your pencil has no grade, it is likely to be an HB (hard black, in the middle of the scale).

C. Making Objects Look 3DTo prevent your drawing from looking flat, a range of tonal shading is essential to make objects look 3D.Pressing harder and lighter and layering with your pencil creates different tones.As a surface goes away from you the tones usually darken.Shading straight across the surface will make an item appear flat.Use the direction of your pencil to help enhance the 2D surfaceIncluding shadows will also help objects appear 3D and separate objects from each other.

Thought-tracking helps inform an audience about a character. You see it in action when a character speaks out loud about his/her inner thoughts at a particular moment in the drama, or a character speaks out loud about his/her inner thoughts during a freeze frame/still-image.

Greek Chorus A company of actors who comment (by speaking or singing in unison) on the action in a classical Greek play.

Greek Messenger

A character that comes on stage and tells other characters (and the audience) about action that has happened in the play off-stage. This was often used to inform about bloody bat-tles that couldn’t be shown on stage.

NarrationA technique whereby one or more performers speak directly to the audience to tell a story, give information, or comment on the action of the scene or the motivations of characters.

AmphitheatreAn open, circular or oval building with a central space for the presentation of dramatic events surrounded by tiers of seats for spectators. Originally built on hillsides.

The skene - (literally, “tent”) was the building directly behind the stage. Usually decorated as a palace or temple. Actors playing gods could appear on the roof.

The theatron (literally, “viewing-place”) is where spectators sat. The theatron was usually part of hillside overlooking and wrapped round the orchestra.

The parodoi (literally, “passageways”) are the paths by which the chorus and some actors (such as those representing messengers or people returning from abroad) made their entrances and exits. The audience also used them to enter and exit the theatre before and after the performance.

The orchestra (literally, “dancing space”). It was a level space where the chorus would dance, sing, and interact with the actors who were on the stage near the skene.

B. Doctor Faustus by Christopher Marlowe(Original Text)

FAUSTUS: Now, Faustus, Must I be damned? Can’t I be saved? Should I turn to God and Heaven? EVIL ANGEL: Keep going, Faustus, in using witchcraft and power. FAUSTUS: Away with such things; away with vanity and sadness.GOOD ANGEL: Dear Faustus, leave that terrible path behind. FAUSTUS: Regret, prayer, forgiveness- what use are these?GOOD ANGEL: They are the things that will bring you to heaven.

(Modern Text)FAUSTUS: So can’t I now be saved? Should I turn to God and Heaven? EVIL ANGEL: Keep using witchcraft Faustus. FAUSTUS: I want to get away from bad things.GOOD ANGEL: Dear Faustus, leave that terrible path behind. FAUSTUS: But prayer and forgiveness- what use are these?GOOD ANGEL: They are the things that will bring you to heaven.

Music Find your Voice and Timbre

D. Wider listeningPieces of music which experiment with timbre:

Peter and the Wolf - Sergei Prokofiev. Each instrument represents a different character in the story.Carnival of Animals - Saint-Saens- The different animals are matched with an individual or family of instruments.Night on a Bare Mountain - Mussorgsky - The instruments have to conjure images of a bleak, wild place.Carmina Burana - Orff - This time it’s the voices which create timbral differences.

B. KeywordsRhythm A pattern of long / short notes

Orchestra A large ensemble of musicians which includes string, wind and percussion instruments

Strings String instruments are made from wood All string instruments make their sound by strings vibrating. Sometimes we pluck the strings with our fingers or a pick. Other times we can pull a bow across the strings to make the sound.

Woodwind The instruments in this family all used to be made of wood, which gives them their name. Today, they are made of wood, metal, plastic or some combination. They are divided into flutes and reed instruments.

Brass Brass instruments are made out of metal. The sound vibrations are created by the players lips.

Percussion Percussion instruments include any instrument that makes a sound when it is hit, shaken, or scraped. It’s not easy to be a percussionist because it takes a lot of practice to hit an instrument with the right amount of strength, in the right place and at the right time.
