Homework Guide The table below shows you which Knowledge

Organisers you should be using each day. Make sure

you stick to this so that you learn 100% of this book.

How to self-quiz

Use the homework rota to decide what you need to self-quiz on each day. You need to learn 100% of EVERY knowledge organiser.

1. Set a timer for 25 minutes 2. Write the title and date NEATLY.

Underline both with a ruler.

3. Write down the key terms you

want to learn NEATLY.

Leave a line space.

4. Cover the definitions apart from

the first. Read it, cover it, say it in

your head, check it.

5. If you get it right, move on and quiz

yourself in your head, one by one.

6. Once ready, cover up all definitions

and write them out from memory

as NEATLY as you can.

7. Check your work by ticking correct

answers and write corrections

using a different coloured pen.

Repeat the process until the time

is up. You should not leave any

blank lines in your book.

It is important that you self-quiz every day.

Over time, you will be able to recall 100% of

your knowledge organiser. Ask other people

to quiz you on your knowledge organiser

regularly. Also, create flash cards and use

these to test yourself.

Expressive Arts (Drama) - Year 7 - T1/2

Expressive Arts (Drama): Evacuees Why Drama?

1) Drama allows you to communicate with and understand others in new ways.

2) Drama is an important tool for preparing you to live and work in a world that is

increasingly team-orientated rather than hierarchical.

3) Drama helps you to develop tolerance and empathy.

Key skills and techniques in this scheme of work

What is an Evacuee? A person evacuated from a

place of danger.

Who were evacuated and

why?

Young children were often

evacuated to protect them

from aerial bombings.

During which World War did

this take place?

World War II.

What name was given to the

evacuation?

Operation Pied Piper.

Key Techniques What is it? Why is it important? Vocal Projection

Using the voice loudly and clearly. To ensure the dialogue is heard by all members of the audience.

Facial Expression

The feelings expressed on a person’s face. Helps to convey the emotion that tells us how the character is

feeling.

Body Language Communication through a movement or a position. This often supports the meaning of the message being conveyed

or supports the spoken word.

Still Image An image that portrays a moment in time, like a

photograph.

It can provide insight into character relationships with a clear

focus on use of space, levels, body language and facial expression.

Thought Tracking A character comes out of a still image to talk about their

feelings and emotions.

Assists the audience in understanding the feelings and emotions

of a given character.

PE — TDA WORKOUT 1

Complete this workout at least twice a week. Each workout takes 8minutes. Undertake each exercise for 30 seconds, followed by 30 seconds of rest. If you want to push

yourself harder work for 40 seconds and then have 20 seconds rest. Do the whole routine twice. Record how many repetitions you do of each exercise in your homework book, so you can

show your class teacher. If your not sure about how to do any of the exercises ask your class teacher.

PE — HEALTH BENEFITS OF PHYSICAL ACTIVITY

Participation in physical activity can lead to a number of physical, social and mental benefits, as well as benefits to your fitness.

PHYSICAL BENEFITS

1. Reduces risk of coronary hear disease ...by improving the functioning of the heart

and blood vessels.

2. Prevents obesity ...by increasing energy expenditure.

3. Reduces risk of injury ...due to increased bone density and strength

of connective tissue.

4. Reduces risk of type 2 diabetes ...by increasing the uptake of blood sugar.

5. Improves fitness ...as the body adapts to the loads placed upon

it.

6. Improves posture ...by strengthening the core muscles.

7. Increases bone density ...due to the repeated loading of bones.

8. Reduces blood pressure ...by widening the blood vessels.

9. Controls weight ...by increasing energy expenditure.

10. Improves bodily function ...by improving blood supply to the organs.

SOCIAL BENEFITS

1. Feel like you belong to a group ...by providing a chance to work with others.

2. Make friends ….by interacting during classes/sessions.

3. Reduces loneliness ...by providing a chance to talk to others.

EMOTIONAL/MENTAL BENEFITS

1. Decrease stress ...by taking mind off worries.

2. Increases self-esteem and confidence ...due to increased abilities.

3. Reduces depression ...by improving self-esteem and quality of life.

4. Improves energy levels ...due to natural boost in energy that exercise

provides.

KEY TERMS

Ultimate questions Ultimate questions are important questions

about reality that do not have a certain answer

and thus are still debated

Worldview Your worldview is your attitude to truth. Your

worldview shapes your values, your beliefs and

impacts how you live your life

Secularism Indifference to, or rejection or exclusion of,

religion and religious consideration

Tolerance Tolerance is allowing other people to hold their

beliefs but voicing your reasons for why you think

they are wrong

Theism The belief in the existence of the Supreme Being

or deities

Society People living together in a more or less ordered

community

Post-modernism A belief that there is no absolute truth – there is

nothing that is definitely right for all people

RE - Year 7: Topic 1: What is Religious Studies?

KEY TERMS Creation The universe and human life are God’s

creation

Salvation Jesus’ death and resurrection saves humans –

rebuilding the relationship with God

The Fall The disobedience of Adam and Eve New Testament The last section of the Bible

Incarnation Jesus is God in human form. He is fully

human and fully divine

Old Testament The first section of the Bible (before Jesus)

Gospel ‘Good news’ Revelation The last book of the New Testament,

recounting a divine revelation of the future

RE - Year 7 - Topic 2: Understanding Christianity

Resurrection - After Jesus was dead and buried Christians believe he rose from the dead – this is the resurrection

- Early on the Sunday three women visited his tomb expecting to find his body but it was not there

- After his resurrection Jesus appeared to his disciples and told them to spread the word of him

- This event is celebrated on Easter Sunday

“He is risen” – Christians say this to each other on Easter Sunday

Incarnation - Christians believe that God was incarnated (born) in human form as Jesus Christ

- Mary was impregnated by the Holy Spirit and gave birth as a virgin – for Christians this is proof of Jesus’ status as the son of God

- Christmas is the festival that celebrates the incarnation

“The word became flesh” – John 1:14

The Kingdom of God - Doesn’t mean that no one sins anymore

- Begun in human’s through Jesus

- God’s ideal for human life in the world – a vision of life lived in the way God intended for human beings

- God’s rule will be fulfilled at some future point

- They try to live this life by following Jesus’ example

People of God - Doesn’t only mean Christians but many people throughout the Bible

- The People of God (from Noah to Nehemiah) go through a journey which is sometimes difficult and testing.

- Ultimately shows that living the way God wants is the best way to live

11. Sperm Cell Acrosome contains enzyme to break into egg, tail to swim. Many

mitochondria to provide energy.

12. Nerve Cell Long to transmit electrical impulses across a distance.

13. Red blood cell Contains Haemoglobin to carry more oxygen, it has no nucleus to

have more space for oxygen and has a biconcave shape.

14. Root Hair Cell Long extension to provide a large surface area for water & mineral

absorption- thin cell wall.

15. Xylem Cell Waterproofed cell wall, cells are hollow to allow water through.

16. Phloem Cell

Some cell shave a lot of mitochondria to give energy for active

transport. Some cells have little cytoplasm for sugars to move through

easily.

required diagram Explanation

1. Diffusion No

Movement of particles in a solution or gas

from a higher to a lower concentration

2. Osmosis No

Osmosis is the net movement of water from

a dilute solution to a concentrated solution

through a partially permeable membrane.

Section 7 - Aseptic technique-

1) Sterilise the inoculating loop by heating in a red

hot Bunsen flame to kill all microbes.

2) Dip the cool sterilised loop into the suspension of

bacteria you want to grow.

3) Then use it to make zig-zag streaks across the

surface of the agar

4) Secure the lid of your Petri dish with short pieces

of tape to stop microorganisms from the air

contaminating your culture and to stop microbes

from your culture from escaping into the air.

Section 8- Stem Cells

Stem cell Stem cells are undifferentiated cells.

Function of Stem

cell

They can produce other stem cells

that can then differentiate into many

different types of cells.

Where Found in adult bone marrow and

from embryos.

Section 9 – Cell cycle and Mitosis

Growth Before a cell can divide it needs to grow and increase the number of sub-cellular structures

such as ribosomes and mitochondria.

Copy DNA

(synthesis) The DNA replicates (copies itself) to form two copies of each chromosome.

Mitosis One set of chromosomes is pulled to each end of the cell and the nucleus divides. Then the

cytoplasm and cell membranes divide to form two cells that are identical to the parent cell.

9. Sublime Change from a solid directly into a gas.

10. Melting point The temperature at which a solids melts.

11. Boiling point The temperature at which a liquid boils.

12. Diffusion

The process by which particles in liquids or gases spread

out through random movement from a region where there

are many particles to one where there are fewer.

13. Concentration The number of particles in a known volume.

14. Temperature A measure of how hot or cold an object is.

15. Rate How fast an event , e.g. diffusion is happening.

Chemistry – Year 7 - Particles States of matter

SOLID

Fixed shape, cannot flow,

cannot be compressed (squashed). Particles vibrate in

a fixed position but cannot move past each other.

Particles are close together.

LIQUID

Can flow, will take the shape

of a container, cannot be compressed (squashed).

Particles are close together but are able to move past each

other.

GAS

Will flow, will take the shape and completely fill any

container, cannot be

compressed (squashed).

Increasing energy

Decreasing energy

Diffusion

Can only happen in liquids and gases because particles can move in liquids and

gases. Cannot happen in solids because

particles are not able to move in solids

Rate of diffusion

Temperature When temperature

increases, the rate of diffusion increases

Concentration

When concentration increases, the rate of

diffusion increases

In terms 1 and 2 of Year 7 you will start

to explore the Formal Elements in Art.

These are the main ingredients of Art

and are the parts used to make a piece

of artwork.

In order to make your drawing have depth

you need to show a range of tones.

Texture is the feel,

appearance, or

consistency of a

surface. There are many

different textures and artists use

different techniques to show these

textures.

Artist link – Lucy Shires

Pattern is a repeated decorative

design.

Patterns are used in many

everyday designs such as

clothing, house furnishings and

accessories.

Artist link - Orla Kieley.

Form is three-dimensional (3D)

and encloses space. Like a shape, a

form has length and width, but it

also has depth.

Tone A variation in l ight, when the object

has tone it looks 3D.

Line A single long mark made by an

implement

Texture The appearance or feel of a surface

Pattern A repeated decorated design

Form 3D shape.

Colour You will find all the colours in the

colour wheel.

Primary

colours

Colours that cannot be

made/mixed, they are the raw

colours. These are red, blue and
