Henri Rousseau Lesson 1
Rousseau, Henri, known as Le Douanier Rousseau (1844–1910) – French painter, the most
celebrated of naive artists
His nickname refers to the job he held with the Paris Customs Office (1871–93), although he
never actually rose to the rank of ‘Douanier’ (Customs Officer). Before this he had served in
the army, and he later claimed to have seen service in Mexico, but this story seems to be a
product of his imagination. He took up painting as a hobby and accepted early retirement in
1893 so he could devote himself to art.
His character was extraordinarily ingenuous and he suffered much ridicule (although he
sometimes interpreted sarcastic remarks literally and took them as praise) as well as
enduring great poverty. However, his faith in his own abilities never wavered. He tried to paint
in the academic manner of such traditionalist artists as Bouguereau and Gérôme, but it was
the innocence and charm of his work that won him the admiration of the avant-garde: in
1908 Picasso gave a banquet, half serious, half burlesque, in his honour. Rousseau is now
best known for his jungle scenes, the first of which is Surprised! (Tropical storm with a tiger;
National Gallery, London, 1891) and the last The Dream (MOMA, New York, 1910). These
two paintings are works of great imaginative power, in which he showed his extraordinary
ability to retain the utter freshness of his vision even when working on a large scale and with
loving attention to detail. He claimed such scenes were inspired by his experiences in
Mexico, but in fact his sources were illustrated books and visits to the zoo and botanical
gardens in Paris.
His other work ranges from the jaunty humour of The Football Players (Philadelphia Museum
of Art, 1908) to the mesmeric, eerie beauty of The Sleeping Gypsy (MOMA, 1897).
Rousseau was buried in a pauper’s grave, but his greatness began to be widely
acknowledged soon after his death.

Shakespeare, 1564–1616: Lesson 1 who was he? Homework

© Crown copyright 2009 00339-2009PDF-EN-01
Shakespeare
Very little is known about William Shakespeare’s life even though he is recognised as one of the world’s most important writers. The few details and known facts about his life are taken from registrar records, court records, wills, marriage certificates and his tombstone. Recorded stories by leading Elizabethan literary figures and rivals suggest he was a playwright, poet and actor.
Birth of Shakespeare, 1564
William was born in 1564. His baptism was recorded in early parish records in Stratford and took place on Wednesday, April 26th, 1564. We can guess that his birthday is 23 April, St. George’s Day, but the exact date is unknown. This is based on the custom for baptism to take place three days after birth.
Shakespeare’s life as a boy
John Shakespeare owned a house on Henley Street located one hundred miles northwest of London. This was thought to be the family home.
We have only a few facts about Shakespeare’s school days. His education probably started at the age of six or seven. Boys were taught basic reading and writing at school. Stratford Grammar School was built around 200 years before William’s birth and was renamed the King’s New Grammar School in 1553. We assume that William would have attended this school but there is no definite proof.
The work of Shakespeare is widely studied at universities but there is little to suggest that William ever attended one himself!
The family
Town records state that William’s father, John Shakespeare, was a town official of Stratford. He was a local businessman with many interests such as dealing in wool and grain, tanning, leatherwork and whittawering. Whittawering is the skill of making purses and gloves using white leather.
William’s mother was Mary Arden. She married William’s father in 1557. Mary was the youngest daughter of Robert Arden of Wilmecote, a wealthy man with a large farm. Mary inherited much of the land and farm estate when her father died.
John and Mary Shakespeare had eight children and William was their third child. They had two daughters before William was born. Two more sons, Gilbert and Richard, followed William. Gilbert died in 1612 and Richard in 1613. The baptism of Edmund, sixth in line, took place on 3 May, 1607. Only Joan and four of William’s seven siblings reached adulthood. Joan was William’s oldest living sister. She outlived her brother, William, the famous playwright.

The global distribution of hurricanes
Howarehurricanesformed?Map D shows that hurricanes develop in tropical areas, over the sea. Air and water are heated by the rays of the sun, which are more concentrated at or near the Equator. The hot air rises up, carrying with it large amounts of water in the form of fine droplets (water vapour). The warm air spirals upwards leaving an area of calm in the centre called ‘the eye of the storm’. It can be very dangerous, because as it passes over, people are fooled into thinking that the storm is over, when in fact the worst part is often still to come.

Why was Bedford flooded? Lesson 2

© Crown copyright 2009 00339-2009PDF-EN-01
FlowandfloodThe amount of water flowing within a river is called its discharge. If the level of water rises above the top of the river bank, it spills over onto the land beyond causing a flood. If we measure the discharge of a river
over a longer period of time, it is possible to produce a graph to show the river’s average flow, or regime. Table A shows the differences in the flow of the River Ouse over a year.
A graph that shows the flow of a river over a short period of time is called a hydrograph.

ItwasestimatedthattwobillionUSdollarswouldbeneededtorepairthedamage.Many of the smaller islands did not have money set aside for emergencies. These are among the poorest countries in the world. Most of their money comes from farming and tourism, and the hurricane caused huge damage in both sectors. In the Dominican Republic 7,000 tourists arrived as soon as the airport re-opened, putting a further strain on resources. Blankets, rice, beans and fresh water were sent by other countries, and Mexico sent a plane-load of metal roofing sheets to help repair some of the damage.

Mercury Lesson 3
Mercury is the closest planet to the Sun. The orbit, or path, it takes around the Sun is not in a circle like Earth. The path it takes is called an ellipse, which is like a circle that has been stretched out. For this reason, the distance from Mercury to the Sun varies from about 27 million miles at its closest, to about 41 million miles at its furthest.
Mercury races around the Sun faster than any other planet. A Mercurian year (the time it takes for the planet to go once around the Sun) is only 88 days, while our year on Earth is 365 days. Mercury does not spin as fast as Earth, though, so a Mercurian day (the time it takes to rotate once) is 59 Earth days!
Mercury is the second smallest planet in the solar system. Pluto is the only planet that is smaller. Earth is about 7,200 miles in diameter, while tiny Mercury is less than half that size at about 3,000 miles in diameter. Put another way, if Earth was the size of a baseball, Mercury would be a little smaller than a ping-pong ball. Mercury is so small that Ganymede, one of Jupiter’s moons, and Titan, one of Saturn’s moons, are both larger.
Mercury is named for the Roman god of commerce and patron of thieves. It may have gotten this name because of the way it quickly appears and disappears from our view.
Mercury is one of the rocky planets of the solar system, aIong with Earth and Venus. Mercury is made up mostly of iron, with a thin rocky layer on the planet surface.
If you look at a picture, you will see that there are many craters on its surface. The planet has been hit many, many times through the years by asteroids and other objects. These impacts are responsible for all the craters on the surface. Earth probably had this many craters at one time, but our weather has worn them down over the years.
The weather on Mercury varies from extremely hot to extremely cold. If you were on the side of the planet facing towards the Sun, you would quickly melt, as the temperature would be around 700 degrees! The ‘day-time’ temperature on Mercury varies, depending on how close it is to the Sun. At the other extreme, the temperature on the ‘night-time’ side of the planet (the side away from the Sun) can be over 300 degrees below zero! Mercury is not a very pleasant place.

Structure of Volcanoes Lesson 3 and how they erupt Main Vent
The liquid rock from the magma chamber travels up through the main vent to the surface. The main vent is a channel through which the lava can flow. Some volcanoes have more than one vent: these are called branches because they are smaller than the main vent. If these branches reach the surface, they may form secondary cones, or fumaroles.
When a volcano erupts, lava, gases and fragments of rock travel right up the main vent and shoot out through the crater.
Ash and Lava Strata
The ash and lava which have been thrown out of the volcano during its life form layers which are coloured light and dark grey.
Magma Chamber
The magma chamber is situated deep below the Earth’s surface The heat in the chamber is so intense that it turns the hard rock into semi-liquid.
Crater
The funnel-shaped hollow at the top of the main vent is called the crater. The lava, gas and ash which shoot upwards from the main vent falls back down to earth and settle around the vent. After several eruptions this debris gradually builds up into a rim around it.
Ash and Gas Clouds
In active volcanoes, gas escapes all the time. Some of it is steam (90% of all volcanic gas is water and carbon dioxide) but more often it is water vapour containing dissolved minerals such as sulphur. When a volcano erupts it releases volumes of gas and tonnes of material into the atmosphere. Along with the smaller particles of ash and rock fragments there are often larger chunks of liquid rock. these pieces of rock are thrown high into the atmosphere by the force of the blast. They begin to cool down as they spin through the air, forming rod-shaped chunks which are called ‘volcanic bombs’. The hot ash and poisonous gases are very dangerous and kill many more people than the volcanic bombs.

How religious were Lesson 4 people in the Middle Ages?
Divide this text into paragraphs. Mark the paragraph breaks like this: //.
The priest was obviously very important to the villagers, but he was not always
popular. One reason for this was the payments the villagers had to make to the
priest. The villagers had to give the priest a tithe (one tenth of everything they
produced on their land). So if they harvested ten sheaves of corn they would
give the priest one sheaf. The priest also received someone’s second-best
working animal when they died, and kept collections made in church at special
services, e.g. at Christmas and Easter. However, not all parishes were lucky
enough to have a priest like Chaucer’s. Many priests did not live in their
parishes. They often had more than one parish, and as they could not live in all
of them they appointed deputies to do their work. These deputies were often
from ordinary village families and poorly educated. They were badly paid by the
priest who kept most of the money for himself. The deputies stumbled through
the services, hardly understanding them, and rarely gave sermons or told
stories. They were farmers like the other villagers and looking after their strips
of land and their animals took up most of their time.

Who are the Quakers? Lesson 5
24
© Crown copyright 200900339-2009PDF-EN-01
In 1652 the Society of Friends was started by George Fox. Shortly afterwards members became known as the Quakers when Fox told a judge, before whom he was appearing, that he should ‘quake’ in the presence of God. Today, Quakers still refer to each other as ‘friends’.
The ‘light within’
From the beginning the Quakers showed that they were different from any other Christian denomination. They refused to take an oath on the Bible, arguing that the truth itself was more precious than any book. Religion was a matter of following the ‘light within’ rather than any religious rules or regulations.
Quakers are also well known as pacifists, arguing that no good ever came from fighting or war. During the First and Second World Wars, for example, they would only take non-combative (non-fighting) roles, such as carrying the injured on stretchers.
Worship
Quakers get together each Sunday for worship in a very simple and plain building called a meeting house. They meet in a room which has a table in the middle with chairs arranged around it. There are no priests or ministers to lead the worship and anyone is free to contribute.
The service starts when the first person enters the room and sits down. It continues largely in silence but from time to time a person may feel that the Holy Spirit is prompting them to speak to the others. They may also read something out loud, say a prayer or pass a personal experience. Gradually a feeling of peace and quietness spreads through the meeting as each person thinks about what has been said. Sometimes nothing at all is said. No one worries about this since they believe that God’s Holy Spirit can communicate directly with the hearts and minds of everyone there.
Simplicity
Both the Quakers and the Salvation Army do not take part in any sacraments. This is because they want to emphasise the deep, inner meaning of true religion rather than concentrating on any outward ceremonies. Simplicity is central to the religious faith of Quakers and is clear in everything that they do. Their marriage service, for example, is more simple than that of any other Church. The couple say:
‘Friends, I take this Friend to be my husband/wife, promising through divine assistance to be unto him/her a loving and faithful husband/wife so long as we both on Earth shall live.’
The couple then sign a certificate with these words on it and it is witnessed by two other people.

Aesop’s fable Lesson 6
Once upon a time a devious and very hungry Wolf decided that he needed to
find a way to hunt food more successfully. Times were hard and food was
becoming more difficult to catch because, as soon as he approached a flock of
sheep, the shepherd would chase him away. He decided that the best plan of
action was to disguise his appearance and that way he could fool the shepherd
and catch his sheep more easily.
One day, late in the afternoon, the Wolf draped himself in the skin of a sheep
and crept into the flock. With the light fading in the sky and his eyesight not as
good as it used to be, the old shepherd was completely fooled by the disguise.
Later that evening the Wolf, much to his glee and satisfaction, was shut up by
the shepherd with all the other sheep in the fold; the gate was closed, and the
entrance was locked and barred. The Wolf was just about to strike when the
shepherd returned to the fold. He had just remembered that he needed to get
some meat for the next day. In the dark, he mistakenly caught up the Wolf
instead of a sheep, and killed him instantly.

The Two Travellers and Lesson 6 the Bear
Once upon a time there were two men who were the greatest of friends. They
were travelling together through a large forest, when they were confronted by a
large and fierce-looking Bear. The Bear suddenly was blocking the path ahead
of them and there seemed no way of escaping danger.
One of the men climbed up quickly into the nearest tree and concealed himself
in the branches. The other man realised that, as he was the only one left, the
Bear was sure to attack him. He did not have time to climb a tree as his friend
had done and so decided on another course of action. He fell flat on the
ground and pretended he was dead. The Bear sniffed the man’s head to
discover what had happened. Because the man was holding his breath and
keeping his limbs absolutely still, the Bear decided he was dead. It is a well-
known fact that bears do not eat dead meat, so the Bear decided that there
was no point in staying and disappeared into the darkness of the forest.

The Tulip Touch Lesson 7
I paid for the privilege (if privilege is what it was). Nobody else would have Tulip
in their gang. They knew from experience that she was out of school more than
in. (That’s why I’d never seen her.) From that time on, I spent countless hours
scuffing alone round the playground, desperately hoping that she’d show up,
or that some soft soul in one of the busy swarms of children whooping around
me would crack and say the words I longed to hear.
‘Forget silly old Tulip. She’s never here, anyway. Come and play with us.’
I look back and think I must have been mad. What sort of friendship is it
when one of the pair is hardly ever there and the other is never permitted to go
off and find her?

The Tulip Touch Lesson 7
...I was so mad at her for the sheer stupidness of it (and for ignoring me so
horribly) that when she took a gold chain I’d never seen before out of her pocket and
twirled it round her fingers, I left Marcie to ask all the questions.
‘Where did you get that?’
‘It’s mine.’
‘Is it real gold, though? Real gold?’
‘Of course it is.’
‘Can I see it?’
‘You’re looking at it.’
‘No, I mean, can I hold it?’
Pleased with her interest, Tulip spilled the chain into Marcie’s hand. Marcie
turned to the sunlight and studied it.
‘This is real gold. It’s got that funny mark.’ She raised her eyes to Tulip’s. ‘It can’t
be yours.’
‘Yes, it is.’
‘I don’t think so. It must be worth an awful lot.’
The edgy tone I knew so well came into Tulip’s voice.
‘Why shouldn’t it be mine?’
Marcie said nothing, and, with Tulip standing there in her cheap clothes and
worn jacket, there was no need.
Furious, Tulip snatched back the necklace and hurled it, glinting and rippling, as
far as she could. It flew across the car park like a live snake, and fell with a rattle into
the huge rubbish drum beside the wall.
We stared. Then Tulip said to Marcie:
‘I don’t want it any more. You can have it if you find it.’
Marcie hesitated just a shade too long. And then, humiliated by the notion of
scrabbling in a dustbin for something cast out by Tulip, she turned her back on us.

Shadow of the Minotaur Lesson 8
‘I’m going round in circles,’ he said in dismay, and his voice rebounded in the
chill tunnels. He peered into each of the passageways that led off from the
junction. Ignoring the one where the thread lay accusingly on the floor, he made
his way down a second tunnel. This one sloped gradually downward.
It was getting colder and the stone floor was oily with puddles of foul water.
Dimly shining globs of something unspeakable floated on their dull surfaces.
Touching the walls earlier had turned his stomach. He had no intention of
making the same mistake with the floor.
Something stirred. A rat? He had never dreamed that he would ever wish for a
rat, but just then he would have taken a hundred of the things, rather than the
lumbering form waiting for him in the darkness. Hooves scraped on the floor.
The sound was made by something big and powerful. This was no rat.

The Other Side of Truth Lesson 10
The dead, flat look in Femi’s eyes added to Sade’s own worries as she and Aunt Grace left
him in the Headteacher’s office at Greenslade Primary School the following Monday morning.
He was going to join a Year Five class and Mrs King could collect him from the school gates
at three-fifteen.
‘Don’t worry! I’m sure he’ll settle in soon,’ the Headteacher said with a brightness matching
the sparkle in her earrings. ‘He’ll be wanting to walk home by himself then.’
Sade wondered how she could be so sure. And what did she mean by ‘home’ anyway?
At breakfast, when Aunt Grace had prepared a pack of sandwiches for each of them, Femi
had not even responded when asked what filling he would like. He had spent the weekend
mostly with his head in a comic or watching sport on television. He had refused to come
when Aunt Grace took Sade out to buy her school uniform, even though he needed sports
clothes for school. Every day he seemed to be moving further away from her. When Sade
waved goodbye to him from the Headteacher’s door, his arms hung so listlessly at his sides
that the red plastic lunch box looked as if it might slide out from his fingers at any moment.

The Other Side of Truth Lesson 10
Sade was in the middle of writing her name when a head of spiky blonde hair poked
between her and Mariam and withdrew.
‘Can’t spell her own name!’ Sade heard the clear whisper. ‘Miss said “Sha-day” and she
ain’t put in no “h”!’
‘Don’t need to spell in the bush!’
Sade gripped her pen as a small explosion of laughter rippled behind her.
‘Donna and Marcia, stop that chattering! You’re meant – if you had listened – to be getting
your books out.’ Mr Morris sounded tired even though it was the first lesson of the day.
‘We only wanted to know, sir, what the new girl’s name means.’
‘Well it is not the time now for continuing that discussion. Get your books out. Hurry! That
goes for you too Kevin Graham!’
Sade felt that eyes were on her, all around. The girls immediately behind her were still talking
to each other under their breath. It was a relief when Mr Morris finally began the lesson. They
were to write about a place that had been very special to them when they were younger. He
wanted them to use words that made other people feel they could see, hear, even smell their
special place.
‘Oh that’s disgusting, sir!’ one of the girls behind Sade called out.
‘And why is that, Marcia?’ Mr Morris’ voice contained a note of irritation.
‘Because my best place was at my granny’s in Jamaica. It was great except for the smells,
sir. My granny keeps cows and they make a horrible pong, sir!’ the girl whined. The class
exploded into laughter and Mr Morris had to shout for quiet.

He opened the rear door and pointed to the floor between the seats.

A dark, grey blanket lay on the back seat.
Femi’s face wrinkled in protest.
‘You can be sure your uncle will make me lie down there when we go out!’ Papa embraced
the children quickly.
‘Look after each other,’ he said huskily. ‘We shall be together soon. O dabo.’
Mama Buki’s cheeks were wet as she kissed them. Sade clambered into the vehicle and
crouched down in the narrow space. Femi followed and a few seconds later the blanket
covered them like a great thundercloud.

Dog bites man and dogs Lesson 12 bite dogs
News release
Friday 5 November
Bath and North East Somerset’s Dog Warden Service has received an unusual
number of dog attack complaints this month – on both people and animals.
People have been injured by dogs and have had to have medical treatment
and, in other cases, animals have been attacked, injured and killed.
Dennis Oakman, Dog Warden at B&NES Council said, ‘It is the dog owner’s
responsibility to keep control of their dogs in any place which is open to the
public. The owner is held responsible for any damage or injury to person or
property.’ He also asked that, ‘If you are attacked by a dog, please inform the
police of the owner’s details, and if you are cut or physically injured, seek
medical assistance.’
The reason for this unusual number of dog attacks is not known; however, all
dog attack incidents should be reported to the police and the Dog Warden
Service.
This Service positively encourages responsible dog ownership, and encourages
all dog owners to take their dogs to training classes where the dogs can be
socialised and trained.
If you have any complaint about dogs, or wish to report an offender but stay
anonymous, then use the F.I.D.O. line (Find Idle Dog Owners). All complaints
are dealt with, no matter how trivial – call Dennis Oakman.
