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 in the homework section on the Academy website: http://www.trinity-academy.org.uk/about/emmanuel-schools-foundation/

You can also find a video demonstrating how to use the knowledge book on the website in the homework section.

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

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, cover, 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

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.

Curiosity Integrity Wisdom

Part of wisdom is curiosity, the habit of being inquisitive – showing the desire to learn or know something. In general, it is wise to want to learn, but wisdom warns us not to explore what may be bad for us, such as illegal drugs or pornography. It is good to have an enquiring mind and a thirst for knowledge.

Integrity is the virtue of being honest with ourselves and others. If we deceive ourselves, we stop our conscience from working and are able to rationalise any wrongdoing we may wish to engage in. If we deceive others, we destroy the trust on which communication and relationships depend.

Wisdom is good judgement. It enables us to see things as they truly are, to know ourselves and others, and make good decisions.

Vocabulary

Vocabulary Vocabulary Reason Think, understand, form judgements logically

Inquisitive Having or showing an interest in learning things

Sincerity Having strong moral principles; honesty and decency.

Love

Love is the virtue of acting generously in the best interest of others. The spirit of generosity enables us to take pleasure in helping others.

Exploration The action of exploring an unfamiliar area Honourable Knowing and doing what is morally right

Curious Eager to know or learn something Principled Showing recognition of right and wrong

Justice Hard work Vocabulary Justice is treating all persons as moral equals, with respect for their unalienable rights as human beings.

Laziness is a vice and hard work a virtue because hard work is required to fulfil our duties and get a job done.

Gratitude Courage Fortitude

Gratitude is the virtue of ‘counting our blessings’ and expressing thanks for benefits received. We are happier when we are grateful, and we make others happy by thanking them for what they do.

Courage is the virtue of overcoming fear in order to do what is right and good in the face of danger. Physical courage does that in the face of physical danger; moral courage does so in the face of social pressure.

Fortitude is having the mental and emotional strength to endure suffering and overcome obstacles. It includes courage in the face of danger but also other important virtues such as confidence, perseverance, endurance and resilience.

4) The highest common factor (HCF) of two numbers is the largest number that is a

factor of both numbers.

The lowest common multiple (LCM) of two numbers is the smallest number that is

multiple of both numbers.

All numbers can be written as a product of primes. This is called prime factor

decomposition.

Use prime factor decomposition to find the HCF or LCM of a set of numbers.

Index notation collects factors together and writes them as a power, e.g 2x2x2x2x2 =

5) An expression contains letter and/or number terms, but no equals

sign, e.g. 2ab, 7x + 3xy, 5st - 9.

An equation has an equals sign, letter terms, and numbers. You can

solve it to find the value of the letter, e.g. 2x - 4 = 9x + 1.

An identity is true for all values of the letters, e.g. x(x+y) ≡ x2 + xy

A formula has an equals sign and letters to represent different

quantities, e.g. v2 = u2 + 2as.

A variable is a letter that represents a number.

You can simplify expressions containing powers to

make calculations easier.

These three rules are called the Multiplication,

Division, and Power Laws.

3) A ratio says how much of one thing there is compared to another.

We use a colon symbol, : to separate the numbers in a ratio.

You can simplify a ratio by dividing the numbers in the ratio by the

same number.

Multiplying all the numbers in a ratio by the same number gives an

equivalent ratio.

A sketch can sometimes help you solve a ratio problem. You could use

a bar model.

Y8 History Knowledge Organiser Unit 1 – The Industrial Revolution

1. Key Words:

Industrial Revolution

A time of change in Britain when people started to make things by machine in factories. It spans from 1750-1900

Urban Built up areas in which people live near. It refers to either towns or cities.

Rural Countryside areas in which the population in spread thinly.

Population The number of people living in a particular place.

Invention Something new which is created, can be an idea or an object.

Factories Places which items are made on mass

Cholera Infections and fatal disease of the small intestine. Typically, contracted form infected water supplies and causing severe vomiting and diarrhoea

Workhouse An institution which would house and look after the poor. People were expected to work for food and lodging.

2. New Inventions:

3. From 1750 Britain went through a process of change in several key areas:

Agriculture Charles ‘Turnip’ Townsend introduced the Norfolk four-Course rotation of Wheat-Turnips-Barley-Clover to his farm and Robert Bakewell used selective breeding to develop the new Leicester sheep. Arthur Young promoted new methods to a wider audience.

Industry Richard Arkwright’s Mill at Cromford heralded ‘the factory Age’ of the textile industry, production of iron increased 30-fold and production of coal increased 20-fold. Newcomen and Watt contributed to the development of steam power to drive machinery more efficiently.

Transport and Communic-ation

Thomas Telford build roads and canals in the 1700s and George Stephenson and Isambard Kingdom Brunel oversaw the ‘Railway Mania’ of the 1800s. There had previously been no very fast way of transporting goods and people around the country. However, canals did already exist and so most materials were transported by boat to towns and cities which had to be located on canal routes.

Medicine Edward Jenner discovered the small pox vaccination in the 1790’s. In 1859 Florence Nightingale published her work on Hospitals. Perhaps the most important discovery was in the 1860’s when Louis Pasteur discovered Germ Theory.

4. The main Changes:

By 1914, England had become a great trading nation with a worldwide empire, which covered a fifth of the globe.

A 260% rise in population

A change from agriculture to industry

A move from domestic industry to factory work

A move from water and wind power to steam engines.

A revolution in transport and communications, from canals and pack horses, to railways and the telegraph.

5. Factory Conditions:

Long Working Hours – a shift was 12-14hours.

Low Wages – 75p a week for a man, 35p for a Women.

Cruel discipline – frequent physical punishments by an overseer.

Accidents were common as there were no health and safety laws.

Health – Cotton had to be spun in damp conditions which gave people bad chests.

Parish apprentices – Orphans were apprenticed to factory owners. They worked 12hour shifts for food and lodgings.

6. Living Conditions:

Pollution – The burning of Coal led to terrible pollution.

Overcrowding – Due to large numbers moving to cities there were not enough houses. Low Wages meant families squeezed into the smallest place possible.

Waste – Streets were lined with waste. The government during this period were trying to build main sewers.

Water – Water was often polluted with Human Waste.

1. Key terms

Phishing To obtain people’s information illegally online by pretending to be someone else.

Hacking To gain unauthorized access to data in a system or computer.

Digital forensics The process of uncovering and interpreting electronic data for the purpose of reconstructing past events.

Encryption The act of protecting data by scrambling it in such a way that only someone with the secret code or key can read it.

Decryption The act of unscrambling encrypted data, with a secret code or key, so that it can be read.

Cipher An algorithm for performing encryption or decryption.

Firewall. Software designed to block unwanted access to systems by examining all data entering and leaving the network

Anti- malware Software designed to stop malware from damaging networks and the devices on that network. This includes anti-virus software.

Network policies Guidelines set in place by a company or organisation, which all members agree to, so that the network is as protected as possible.

Username Identification used by a person with access to a computer, network, or online service. (eg. 172442tr)

Password A secret word, phrase, or string of characters that allows access to a computer, interface, or system.

2. Types of Cyber security risks

Malware

Software that can harm devices, which is installed on someone’s device without their knowledge or consent.

Virus Viruses attach (by copying themselves) to certain files. Users spread them by copying infected files and activate them by opening those files.

Worm

Worms are like viruses but they self-replicate without any user help, meaning they can spread very quickly.

Trojan

Trojans are malware disguised as legitimate software. Unlike viruses and worms, Trojans don’t replicate themselves – users install them not realising they have a hidden purpose

Spyware Secretly monitors user actions (e.g. key presses) and sends info to a hacker.

Hacker A person who unlawfully gains access to a computer system

3. How to spot a phishing email: -

1. Are there spelling mistakes?

2. Does the formatting of the email look unusual?

3. Is the email address of the sender genuine?

4. Is the language threatening or overly persuasive?

5. Does the email refer to you by name or not? - Are there links in the

email?

6. Do the links in the email match the link (hover, don’t click!)

7. Are there attachments that you weren’t expecting?

Sunflower oil

margarine Key Points:

Comes from plants Liquid at room temperature Doesn’t block the arteries as much Contains the same amount of calories

as saturated fat.

2. Fibre – essential for a healthy gut.

Fibre only comes from plants but some plants contain more fibre than others. High fibre foods are beans, seeds, pulses, cereals, fruit, vegetables and wholegrain products like brown bread and rice.

Fibre is digested slowly by the body therefore keeping you fuller for longer and making you snack less.

Fibre is essential for a healthy gut and bowel, because it helps to remove waste from the body and prevent diverticular disease.

Fibre swells up when digested and needs water to help it pass through the system. 8 glasses of water should be consumed every day.

A teenager should aim for 24g per day for healthy digestion. Adults should aim for 30g per day.

Fibre can also be known as ‘NSP’ which stands for Non Starch Polysaccharide.

3. Types of production - Food production happens all over the country- from your kitchen to school and in large factories.

One off- prototype A product such as a wedding cake, which is a one off. Prototypes can be expensive as there is only one being made.

Batch production Products made in small batches, for example muffins or sausage rolls made in a school canteen.

Mass production Products made ‘on mass’. Large amounts are made in a factory such as tins of beans, chocolate bars, and sauces.

Continual production Products that are made 24/7 without a break, an example of this product would be bread.

Melodrama and Silent Movies

1. Melodrama 3. Stock Characters Early 19th Century theatre aimed to capture the attention of the expanding working class population of industrial towns. This was a largely illiterate audience and it was assumed they wanted short action-packed dramas.

Hero

Young and handsome Brave and courageous Truly in love with the heroine

Theatres were lit by candles as there was no electricity. Smoking was allowed in theatres and resulted in a lot of thick cigar smoke in the air making visibility difficult, so action on stage had to be big and over the top (OTT).

Villain

Evil and fiendish Rich and in power Abuses his power for his own gain Wants to marry the heroine at all costs

Storylines had to be familiar and characters instantly recognisable. The Victorian Melodrama featured stock characters engaged in a sensational plot featuring themes of love and murder.

Damsel/Heroine

Young and beautiful Often helpless and a ‘damsel in distress’ Truly in love with the hero and relies on him

Melodramatic plots were very predictable and good always triumphed over evil. Plays were always accompanied by music, hence the name: melody drama = melodrama.

Loveable Rogue / Sidekick

Comically brave and courageous in helping the heroine at all costs even though he is afraid.

Secretly in love with the damsel and accident prone

Old Man / Woman

Good and honourable people At the mercy of the villain often because they are poor or he has a hold on them. Helpless

2. Key Terms

Body Language Physical behaviour used to express or convey information. Such behaviour includes facial expressions, body posture, gestures, eye movement, touch and the use of space.

Facial Expressions

Using the face to create a definite emotion, e.g. a smile. 5. Silent Movies

Mime A scene without words. Dialogue is replaced by detailed movement, gestures, body language, posture and facial expressions.

In the early part of the 20th Century, it was not possible to have

synchronised sound (voices and dialogue) on films - this was not available until the late 1920's.

Slapstick Broad comedy characterised by boisterous and exaggerated physical action such as the throwing of pies in actors' faces and slipping on a banana skin.

Therefore, all communication was muted, and the actor needed to perform in an exaggerated way in order to convey their intentions to an audience - over the top body language and facial expressions.

Silent movies were hugely influenced by Melodrama.

4. Script In order to make the story clear, the film makers used placards with text or spoken language in order to convey the actors’ thoughts and speech.

Villain: I have you now, my sweet. Damsel: No! Unhand me! Hero: Unhand her, villain! Villain: And who might you be? Hero: I am to be …her husband. Damsel: Oh, Godfrey! Hero: Oh, Rose! Damsel: Oh, Godfrey! Hero: Oh, Rose! Villain: Oh, drat!

‘interrogation’

It was his father who introduced him to dance. He believed it would provide a useful

career and strengthen his legs that were damaged by polio. He trained ballet, tap,

acrobatics dance and contemporary dance. At the age of 13 he attended the Ballet

Rambert Dance School. In 1966 he emerged as the Ballet Rambert’s leading dancer.

This is a company based in London that focuses on

human rights. Their work helps people who have been wrongly

imprisoned, in some cases tortured for something they didn’t

do. Christopher Bruce has a close connection with this

company and a lot of his works are focused around this topic,

swansong included.

Swansong is a dance that shows a

victim or prisoner being tortured by

two interrogators or guards. There

is no actual violence but it shows

both the aggressive, and

humiliation aspect of a long

interrogation.

1. Bruce had read about and was very

aware of the work of Amnesty International

and he wanted to say something about the

situation of a prisoner of conscience, (a

person imprisoned unfairly).

2. The other image for Bruce was the image

of saying goodbye to something and for him

it was saying goodbye to dancing. (Moving

from being a performer to a choreographer).

There are two basic inspirations for this

piece (imprisoned unfairly).

5. How to show character in dance

Performance skills are important to enhance the final performance. In this piece that can be used to

help show different characters. There are two types of characters in Swansong. There are three

main skills for success in this area

Guards

Facial Expressions

Meaning - The emotion you show in your face.

Example – To show a stern face would be with no

smiling and possibly showing anger with eye brows

frowning.

Body Language

Meaning - How you hold your posture.

Example - To show the guard you should have a

strong stance with straight back, arms may be

crossed.

Focus

Meaning - Where you look

Example - To show you are better than the prisoner

you will be looking down; you may share a showing

look with the other guard.

Prisoner

Facial Expressions

Meaning – What emotions you show in your face.

Example – Show a sad or depressed emotion

through using your mouth and eye brows.

Body Language

Meaning – How you hold your posture

Example – Shoulders will be slouched over, with

your body weight forward.

Focus

Meaning – Where you look

Example – Eyes will be directed at the floor to

show your lack of confidence and energy. You will

make eye contact with guards at certain points to

show they control you.

4. Themes The title ‘Swansong’ is very important for the dance. The dictionary states this means

A person’s last work or act before death or retirement.

A song to be sung by a dying swan (It is believed that a swan signs only at the point of death).

Leitmotif

1. Key Words 3. Leitmotif Chord Two or more notes played at the same time. Leitmotif refers to a short and repetitive musical phrase that

becomes synonymous with an individual character, like a signature, announcing their presence.

Dynamics How loud or soft the music is. Harmony Accompaniment to the tune – chords/notes blending. Major / Minor

There are two types of chord: Major sounds happy and positive and Minor sounds sad.

It is often confused with a theme tune, however, a theme tune relates to the film as a whole whereas the leitmotif is associated with an individual character and appears almost always whenever that character appears within the film.

Melody A sequence of notes played one after the other which create a tune.

Pitch How high or low a note is.

Rhythm Structure

The effect created by combining a variety of long and short notes. The order of the piece – how it is built.

The leitmotif communicates with the audience about the type of character it relates to and what sort of activities they are involved in.

Tempo The speed of the music.

Texture How thick or thin a sound is.

Timbre The sound quality of different instruments. 4. The Imperial March – Darth Vader’s Leitmotif
