Instructions Each day for homework, you should be studying the allocated sections of your Knowledge Organiser (KO). The timetable on the next page will let you know which subjects you should be studying on each day.

You should use the knowledge book that you have been given to show the work you have completed. Each evening you should rule off from the previous work and clearly write the date at the start of the next piece of work.

You need to bring your KO to school every day along with your exercise book.

Your parents should tick off your homework every evening using the grid in your KO.

Subject teachers will check that you have completed your homework; failure to show homework for all subjects will result in a sanction.

You will be tested on the knowledge you have learnt in your subject lessons.

Core subjects (Mathematics, English and Science) will set one homework from the knowledge organiser and one homework which may include an essay or extended written piece or a web based practice session. If this is the case, your teacher will let you know.

Self-testing You can use your KO and your knowledge book in a number of different ways but at no time should you be copying the information down. Use the ‘How to self-test with a Knowledge Organiser’ booklet which can be found on the Academy website in the homework section: http://www.trinity-academy.org.uk/about/emmanuel-schools-foundation/

Below are some possible tasks you could do in your knowledge books:

Presentation You should take pride in how you present your work; each page should be dated with the subject name and both underlined. You should use half to one full page and fill it neatly with evidence of notes and self-testing. When you start your second subject, remember to put the title and underline it.

There should be an appropriate amount of work ( ½ - 1 page of evidence). 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 sanction.

If your work is well presented and shows evidence of excellent work, merits will be awarded and will go towards a House Total.

Ask someone to test you by asking you questions and

then, write down everything you can remember in a

mind map

Write your own challenging questions then leave it

overnight and attempt them the next day

Create flash cards

Rewrite the key words in new sentences

Look, cove, write, check

Create mnemonics

Create a table of positives and negatives

Draw a comic strip of a timeline

Use a clock template to divide the information into

smaller sections

Give yourself spelling tests

Draw diagrams of processes

Draw images and label/annotate them with information

Do further research on the topic

Create fact files

Create flowcharts

Create a table of positives and negatives

Box 4—The Chain of Being

What is it? It is a hierarchical structure for all aspects of life

Where does it begin? It begins with the highest form of all beings – God

What’s in the middle? Humans and animals are in the middle

What the lowest form of being? Minerals

Were humans all considered equal?

No. Within the human section of the Chain of Being

there were subsections. Kings and Queens were at the

top followed by nobles, merchants and peasants

Can we see this in A Midsum-mer Night’s Dream?

Yes. The characters in the play relate to individual

sections of the Chain of Being. The higher up the chain,

the more power and influence the character has

What happens when some-one disrupts the Chain of Be-ing?

People believed that if you disrupted the natural order,

which was considered a sin, then there would be disor-

der in the world.

Box 5- The Role of Men and Women

Patriarch The male head of a family or society Patriarchy A society where men are in charge

Matriarch The female head of a family or society Marriage It was quite normal for fathers to decide who their daughters married.

1. Key terms

Yeast

Yeast is a type of bacteria that you need to make bread. Yeast produces carbon diox-

ide which causes the bread to rise. Yeast needs four things to activate and grow:

time, moisture, food and warmth.

Rubbing

in

Rubbing in is a method that is used during making a pastry or crumble. To rub in, the

tips of the fingers are used as they are the coolest part of the hand to prevent

melting. The process simply coats the flour which gives the desired effect of it look-

ing like breadcrumbs.

Bridge

method

The bridge method is used when chopping with a knife. It is used to keep fingers out

of the way. This method is used for chopping something long such as a carrot or a

cucumber. The fingers go around the outside forming a bridge.

Claw

Method

The claw method is another method used when chopping with a knife. It is used to

keep fingers out the way. The claw method is used more with round objects such as

an onion, gripping it with fingers in a claw shape so that fingers are out of the way.

Proving

Bread dough is left in a warm space to prove. The warmth activates the yeast bacte-

ria which multiples and traps carbon dioxide molecules helping the bread dough to

rise.

Kneading

Kneading is done repetitively with the heal of your hand until the bread dough be-

comes soft and stretchy. Kneading stretches the gluten, which is the protein found in

bread. Gluten needs to be stretchy to allow carbon dioxide to be produced.

2. Heat transfer

Conduction

A saucepan or frying pan is used for cooking on the hob. These pans are often made

from metal because metal is a good conductor of heat. Heat energy moves through

the metal pan, through the liquid inside the pan and into the food.

Convection

When food is being cooked in the oven, currents of hot air move around the food,

gradually making it hot and cooking it. These are known as convection currents.

Some ovens have a fan inside which moves the convection currents evenly through

the oven.

Radiation

Just as the sun can shine down and brown your skin, heat rays shine down onto the

food, browning and cooking it. When food is grilled it needs to be turned over to

brown and cook both sides. The heat does not penetrate very far so this method of

cooking is used for thin foods such as bread, fish and burgers. It is quick and healthy

as the fat melts and drips out of the food.

3. Equipment

Sharp

Knife

A knife is used for chopping food products. There are different

styles of cutting and chopping associated with different products

such as the julienne method for carrot sticks. Other methods are

dicing, slicing, cubing

Palette

knife

A palette knife is used for spreading soft ingredients, such as

icing and margarine. For example the creaming of a Swiss roll.

Fish Slice A fish slice is used for flipping and turning items in a hot pan,

such as burgers or fish.

Cutter A cutter can be used in the food room to make sure a batch of

food is all the same size such as scones or even burgers.

Cooling

Rack

The purpose of a wire rack is to help food items cool quickly,

rather than being left to cool on a hot baking tray which would

keep the food warm.

Baking

Tray Food is placed on a baking tray and goes into the oven to cook.

4. Healthy Cooking Methods

Steaming

Steaming is a cooking method that is healthier than boiling because

no nutrients are lost to water that is tipped away when boiling, the

steam gently cooks foods such as vegetables which lock nutrients in.

Grilling

Grilling is a cooking method that is an alternative to frying, no extra

fat is added to this cooking method and the fat drips off during

cooking.

Poaching

Poaching is when a food is poached in a liquid, an example of this is

poaching fish where the fish is lightly boiled in milk and the milk

absorbs the calcium, giving it an extra nutritional value.

A motif is a movement phrase (A small dance) with an idea that is repeated and developed through the piece.

Motif development is where you use one of the below to change the original movement. This will allow it to

become more interesting.

Motif

Motif Development

Gesture A movement of part of the body (especially the head or hand.

Elevation Where the whole body leaves the floor.

Stillness The whole body holds a certain position for longer than 4 seconds.

Turn Move in a circular direction around one point.

Twist The feet are planted in one direction whilst the torso moves in a different direction.

Travel Transfer weight from one leg to another to allow you to move from one part of the space to another.

Performance Skills

Performance skills are those aspects that set dancing apart from mechanical movement. Often, our attention is drawn to the dancer who is using a range of performance skills effectively, because they stand out from the rest.

Timing Moving to the beat of the music.

Confidence Showing that you know what you are doing and where you should be.

Energy Performing all movements with as much effort as possible.

Accuracy Trying to make sure the movements are as accurate as the way they were taught.

How it comes together

All of these aspects are connected to the way in which a dancer interprets the movement and the meaning of a dance. Some of these

skills may be set by the choreographer, for example where they should be (e.g. looking at the floor or another dancer).

2. The use of the

definite article in

French

If you are saying that you like/do not like something, you need to use the word for “the” in French. E.g. J’aime le français. If you are describing what lesson you have, you do not use the word for the in French. E.g. J’ai français.

3. Asking a question

You can use a question word such as: Qu’est-ce que…? What..? Est-ce que…? Are…? Pourquoi….? Why…..? Or you can turn a

statement into a question

by making your voice go

up at the end of the

sentence.

6. Connectives

Make your sentences more interesting! et – and car/parce que – because mais – but aussi - also

1. The Present Tense -er verbs

British Values

- Democracy

Let everyone be subject to the governing

authorities, for there is no authority except

that which God has established. The

authorities that exist have been established

by God. Consequently, whoever rebels

against the authority is rebelling against

what God has instituted, and those who do

so will bring judgment on themselves. For

rulers hold no terror for those who do right

…. Do you want to be free from fear of the

one in authority? Then do what is right and

you will be commended. Romans 13

British Values –

The Rule of Law

1. 2. 3. The rule of Law means that the UK is governed

by the Law. The government create the Law and

the Police Force enforce it. Everyone is subject to

the same laws and everyone is treated the same

under the Law. Anyone who breaks the Law will

be punished by the legal system (the courts will

make a judgement) and everyone is entitled to

free defence if they have broken the Law.

All people and

institutions are

subject to and

accountable to law

that is fairly applied

and enforced.

Whoever scorns

instruction will

pay for it, but

whoever

respects a

command is

rewarded.

Proverbs 13:13

Show proper respect

to everyone, love

the family of

believers, fear God,

honour the

emperor. 1 Peter

us God’s Laws –

The Ten

Commandments.

means that in society everyone has

equality of rights and is able to have a fair

vote in an election to elect the

government who then makes the

decision.

4.

Tolerance is a fair,

objective, and

permissive attitude

to those whose faith

and beliefs may

differ from one’s

own

You have heard that it was said,

‘Love your neighbour and hate

your enemy.’ But I tell you, love

your enemies and pray for those

who persecute you, that you may

be children of your Father in

heaven.

British Values –

sounds like we

are ‘putting

up’ with

others, but the

Bible says we

must love our

neighbour and

pray for our

enemies!

BOX 3 Differences between BITMAP and Vector graphics

BITMAP graphics Vector graphics What are they made up of?

Pixels of different colours

Objects

What can be edited? Individual pixels Individual objects

What is the file size? Large, as the computer stores details of every pixel

Small, as the computer stores details of objects, which do not require much memory.

What happens when they are resized?

They lose quality. They do not lose quality.

How do they look? Real. Not real (many of them look like cartoons).

Common file formats

BOX 2

In computer graphics, a raster graphics or bitmap image is a dot matrix

data structure that represents a generally rectangular grid of pixels,

viewable via a monitor, paper, or other display medium. Raster images

are stored in image files with varying formats.

Vector graphics are computer graphics images that are defined in terms

of 2D points, which are connected by lines and curves to form polygons

and other shapes.
