Presentation
You should take pride in how you present
your work, each page should be clearly dated
at the top left hand side with the name of
Subject 1 written in the middle. When you
have completed the tasks for Subject 1 you
should rule a line to indicate that section is
complete and then write 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.
After every school day, you should be
completing a section of the Knowledge
Organiser. The timetable on the first 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).
There is an expectation that you should also
read a book of your own choosing for 35
minutes everyday, which should be signed off
by a parent/carer. Remember to quiz on
books you finish.
You are to use your purple exercise book to
show the work you have done. Each evening
you should start a new page and put the date
and topic clearly at the top.
You need to bring your KO and exercise
book with you EVERYDAY to school.
Your KO and exercise book will be checked
regularly in tutor time, failure to show
homework for any of the FIVE days of the
week will result in an lunch time detention
that day. Three lunchtimes per half term will
result in an after school detention and failure
to complete ALL FIVE days will result in an
immediate after school detention.
You will also be tested in your lessons,
every day, on knowledge from the
organisers.
Self-testing
You 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.
Below are some possible tasks you could do in your workbooks.
Instructions for how to use your KnowledgeOrganiser
Read, cover, write
Write out the questions and try to remember the answers
Write out the answers and try to remember the questions
Ask someone to ask you the questions and you write them down
Fill in a blank Knowledge Organiser with as much as you can remember
Create mind maps
Create flashcards
Put the key words into new sentences
Mnemonics
Give yourself spelling tests
Definition tests

Year 8 English LITERATUREKNOWLEDGE ORGANISER (Spring ii)
Section 3: Development
The Greeks developed many patterns and designs using the golden ratio. It appears on works in circles, pentagons and decagons, but it is in the Golden Rectangle that is the most visually satisfying of all the shapes. Much thought has gone into why this ratio is so appealing. Pythagoras thought it might be the basis for the proportions of the human body. He was proved right. The height of a man, to his naval height was about 1.62. This picture, “Study of Human Proportions “, attributed to Leonardo da Vinci, was drawn in accordance with mathematical laws.
Sharing an amount in a ratio
a) When you know the wholeb)Monty and Mosaurusshare £72 in the ratio 5:3. How much do they each get?
b) When you know one part.
In a school the ration of boys to girls is 9 : 4.There are 270 boys in the school. How many students are in the school altogether?
Divide the total number of boys by the boys ratio
270 ÷ 9 = 30This gives the number for 1 portionGirls 4 x 30 = 120
c) When you know the difference
Sharon an Bob share some money in a ratio 2 : 5Bob gets £45 more than Sharon. How much does each person get?1. Find the differences between the ratios 5 – 2 = 32. Divide: £45 ÷ 3 = 153. Multiply: 2 x 15 = 30 Sharon’sshare 4. Multiply: 5 x 15 = 75 Bob’s shareCheck your answer: 75 – 30 – 45✓

Radius A straight line from the centre to the circumference of a circle.
Diameter A straight line passing from side to side through the centre of a circle.
Circumference The distance around the edge of a circle.
Arc An arc is a portion of the circumference of a circle
Chord A line segment that joins two points on the circumference of a circle
Tangent A line which touches a circle just one point
Pi The ratio between the circumference of a circle and its diameter is given a Greek letter of the alphabet and is always equal to 3.14159265358… (π)
Pi (π) is an irrational number be recorded accurately using digits without rounding. Knowing Pi (𝛑) to 39 digits is enough to work out the circumference of the universe to within a width of a hydrogen atom. 8
Section 2: Important ideas
Area of a circle
A = πr2
Used to calculate the are of a circle. Notice that the formula includes a 2 and the answer will be an area measured in units2. This formula can also be used as the basis for finding the area of sectors and the volumes of cylinders
Circumference
of a circleC = πdC = 2πr
Used to calculate the circumference. Notice that the formula does not feature a 2. This formula can also be used to calculate the perimeter of shapes made up from parts of a circle.
Simplifying Ratios
Divide all parts of the ratio by a common factor
5 : 10 = 1 : 2 (divide by both)14 : 21 = 2 : 3 (divide both by 7)
Ratios in the form 1 : n or n : 1
Divide both parts of the ratio by one of the numbers to make one part equal 1
5 : 7 = 1 : 7
5in the form 1 : n
5 : 7 = 7
5: 1 in the form n : 1
Write a ratio as a fraction
Bill and Mary share £50 in the ratio 2 : 3
Write Bill’s share as a fraction: 𝟐
5Bill’s fraction
The Golden Ratio even appears in the Fibonacci sequence. The ratio of any consecutive numbers in the sequence (after 3) is approximately 1.62.

Subject: Biology – EvolutionSection 1: Key Terms
Tier 3 Vocabulary
Definition
Evolution The change in the characteristics of a
species over several generations and
relies on the process of natural
selection
Extinction A species that has completely died out.
Gene A sections of DNA that codes for a
characteristic.
Homo Sapiens Our species, which evolved about
300,000 years ago; meaning 'intelligent
humans'
Inheritance The passing on of traits from parents to
their offspring
Natural selection
Natural process where the best
adapted organisms survive longer, have
more offspring and pass on genes to
offspring.
Species Individuals of different species are not
able to interbreed successfully
Variation Differences between individuals
Tier 2 Vocabulary
Definition
adapt Change in a species that makes it more
able to survive and reproduce
Antibiotics Substances that slow down or stop the
growth of bacteria. They are commonly
prescribed medicines, examples
include penicillin and amoxicillin. They
only kill bacteria and NOT viruses.
characteristic Feature/trait/quality (e.g. size, shape,
colour, etc) of a plant or animal.
DNA a substance that carries genetic
information in plants and animals (short
for deoxyribonucleic acid)
hybrid Related to two species/breeds/ varieties.
Section 2: Important ideas
Who was Charles Darwin?
Darwin was an English naturalist, geologist and biologist, best known for his contributions to the science of evolution.
What was his theory?
His Theory of Evolution suggested that different specieshave evolved from simpler life forms and that the organisms able to survive are those that have adapted best to their environment. Sometimes referred to as Darwinism.
How is evolution observed?
It is a slow process that can take many thousands, even millions, of years to happen. Scientists have used fossil evidence to look at how organisms have adaptedover millions of years and how their characteristics have changed.
Why does
evolution
happen?
If a species is unable to adapt
quickly enough to its
environment, then it is at risk
of becoming extinct. This can
happen for many reasons:
New predators, New diseases,
Destruction of habitats,
Changes to the environment,
Increased competition for
resources.

Section 3: TasksCombustion is another work for burning:This is the combustion process:
The fire triangle shows three things needed to start a fire. Removal of one of these components will either not start a fire, or put a fire out.
Combustion of fossil fuels produces molecules (such as carbon dioxide, sulfur dioxide) that causes air pollution but also leads to global warming. As the concentration of CO2 increases in the atmosphere, so too have average global world temperatures. Just a few degrees increase in world temperatures will have a dramatic effect on global weather patterns and polar ice caps melting.
Research task: What can we do, as individuals, to help address climate change?
Subject: Chemistry – EvolutionSection 1: Key Terms
Tier 3 Vocabulary
Definition
Combustion A burning reaction
Complete combustion
When a fuel burns, it reacts fully in oxygen
Endothermic A reaction that takes in energy from the surroundings
Exothermic A reaction that gives out energy to surroundings
Calcium Carbonate
The chemical found in chalk and limestone.
It reacts with acid rain so buildings made of
limestone become damaged.
Carbon Monoxide
A poisonous gas given off during
incomplete combustion
Fossil fuels Coal, oil and natural gas – all fuels that were formed from the remains of dead plants and animals
Hydrogen Fuel Cell
A possible alternative to using fossil fuels.
Fuel cells use hydrogen to release energy
and can be used to run cars. The only
product is water.
Limewater Detects carbon dioxide, it goes cloudy
when carbon dioxide is passed through it
Incomplete combustion
When a fuel burns in a limited supply of oxygen. Carbon monoxide, carbon and water are produced.
Nitrogen Oxides
A pollutant produced by engines when
nitrogen in air reacts with oxygen in an
engine. It adds to acid rain.
Sulfur Dioxide The main cause of acid rain, it forms when
sulphur impurities in fossil fuels are burnedTier 2 Vocabulary
Definition
Global warming
A theory that says the Earth is getting hotter because of the activities of humans.
Fuel A chemical that is a store of energy
Section 2: Important ideas
What is Acid Rain?
Rain with a low pH formed when Sulfur Dioxide or Nitrogen Oxidesmix with rain. It causes damage to land, lakes and buildings.
What is a complete combustion?
In a complete combustionreaction, a substance will react with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water. It is known as an exothermic reaction as it releases energy to the surroundings. The energy released from this chemical reaction can be used to heat water, cook food, generate electricity and power vehicles.
What is an incomplete combustion?
In an incomplete combustionreaction, a substance will react with little oxygen to produce carbon monoxide, carbon and water. Less energy is released than compared to complete combustion.
Why are
fossil fuels
bad?
Although natural processes
continually form fossil fuels,
such fuels are generally
classified as non-renewable
resources because they take
millions of years to form and the
known viable reserves are being
drained much faster than new
ones are being made. The use
of fossil fuels raises serious
environmental concerns.

Section 3: Tasks
A compass is a small magnet that will point towards the Earth’s North pole. But magnetic materials placed near a compass can change the direction that the compass points towards.
Magnetic Fields:• Magnetic fields can’t be seen • They surround a magnet and attract or repel
magnetic materials • Field lines have arrows on them • Field lines come out of the north and south
poles• The lines are more concentrated at the poles
Subject: Physics – Magnets and ElectromagnetsSection 1: Key Terms
Tier 3 Vocabulary Definition
Attract Two things pulling towards each other
Core The piece of iron, bundle of iron wires forming the central or inner portion in an electromagnet
Current Flow of electrons in a wire
Electrons Negatively charged particles
Electromagnet A core of magnetic material (such as iron) surrounded by a coil of wire through which an electric current is passed to magnetize the core
Field The force around a magnet
Magnetic Force The force exerted between magnets or a magnetic and a magnetic material e.g. iron
Pole Ends of bar magnet
Solenoid Cylindrical coil of wire acting as a
magnet when carrying electric current
Tier 2 Vocabulary Definition
Repel Push away
Section 2: Important ideas
What is Magnetism?
Magnetism is a non-contact force. A magnet does not have to be touching something to attract it. Magnets attract magnetic materials. Iron, nickel and cobalt are magnetic materials. Mixtures, like steel, that include a magnetic material will also be attracted to a magnet. Other metals, such as aluminium or copper, are not magnetic and will not be attracted to a magnet.
How do magnets attract?
The two ends of a bar magnet are called the north-seeking pole and the south-seeking pole, or North Pole and South Pole for short.
A north pole and a south pole attract each other.
Two north poles or two south poles repel each other.
How are electromagnets made?
We can pass an electrical current through a wire.
This creates a magnetic field. We call this an electromagnet
Electro = electric magnet = magnet 11
An electromagnet is a coil of wire with an electric current flowing through it. It is only magnetic while the current is flowing.
You can make an electromagnet stronger by: increasing the number of coils of wire
increasing the size of the current (by increasing the voltage)
using an iron core.
The Earth behaves like a giant magnet. It produces a magnetic field. The most concentrated magnetic areas are at the north and south poles.

The Living World
What is an Ecosystem?
An ecosystem is a system in which organisms interact with each other and with their environment.
Ecosystem’s Components
Abiotic
These are non-living, such as air, water, heat and rock.
Biotic These are living, such as plants, insects, and animals.
Flora Plant life occurring in a particular region or time.
Fauna Animal life of any particular region or time.
Biomes
A biome is a large geographical area of distinctive plant and animal groups, which are adapted to that particular environment. The climate and geography of a region determines what type of biome can exist in that region.
Coniferous forest
Deciduous forest
Tropical rainforests
Tundra
Temperate grasslands
Tropical grasslands
Hot deserts. The most productive biomes – which have the greatest biomass- grow in climates that are hot and wet.
Biome’s climate and plants
Biome Location Temperature Rainfall Flora Fauna
Tropical rainforest
Centred along the Equator. Hot all year (25-30°C) Very high (over 200mm/year)
Tall trees forming a canopy; wide variety of species.
Greatest range of different animal species. Most live in canopy layer
Tropical grasslands
Between latitudes 5°- 30°north & south of Equator.
Warm all year (20-30°C)
Wet + dry season (500-1500mm/year)
Grasslands with widely spaced trees.
Large hoofed herbivores and carnivores dominate.
Hot desert Found along the tropics of Cancer and Capricorn.
Hot by day (over 30°C) Cold by night
Very low (below 300mm/year)
Lack of plants and few species; adapted to drought.
Many animals are small and nocturnal: except for the camel.
Temperate forest
Between latitudes 40°-60°north of Equator.
Warm summers +mild winters (5-20°C)
Variable rainfall (500-1500m /year)
Mainly deciduous trees; a variety of species.
Animals adapt to colder and warmer climates. Some migrate.
Tundra Far Latitudes of 65° north and south of Equator
Cold winter + cool summers (below 10°C)
Low rainfall (below 500mm/ year)
Small plants grow close to the ground and only in summer.
Low number of species. Most animals found along coast.
Coral Reefs
Found within 30° north –south of Equator in tropical waters.
Warm water all year round with temperatures of 18°C
Wet + dry seasons. Rainfall varies greatly due to location.
Small range of plant life which includes algae and sea grasses that shelters reef animals.
Dominated by polyps and a diverse range of fish species.
Nutrient cycle
Plants take in nutrients to build into new organic matter. Nutrients are taken up when animals eat plants and then returned to the soil when animals die and the body is broken down by decomposers.
Litter This is the surface layer of vegetation, which over time breaks down to become humus.
Biomass The total mass of living organisms per unit area.
Distribution of Tropical Rainforests
Tropical rainforests are centred along the Equator between the Tropic of Cancer and Capricorn. Rainforests can be found in South America, central Africa and South-East Asia. The Amazon is the world’s largestrainforest and takes up the majority of northern South America, encompassing countries such as Brazil and Peru.
Climate of Tropical Rainforests
• Evening temperatures rarely fall below 22°C.• Due to the presence of clouds, temperatures rarely rise
above 32°C.• Most afternoons have heavy showers.• At night with no clouds insulating, temperature drops.
Rainforest nutrient cycle
The hot, damp conditions on the forest floor allow for the rapid decomposition of dead plant material. This provides plentiful nutrients that are easily absorbed by plant roots. However, as these nutrients are in high demand from the many fast-growing plants, they do not remain in the soil for long and stay close to the surface. If vegetation is removed, the soils quickly become infertile.
Tropical Rainforest Biome
Tropical rainforest cover about 2 per cent of the Earth’s surface yet they are home to over half of the world’s plant and animals.
Food Web and Chains
Simple food chains are useful in explaining the basic principles behind ecosystems. They show only one species at a particular trophic level. Food webs however consists of a network of many food chains interconnected together.
Interdependence in the rainforest
A rainforest works through interdependence. This is where the plants and animals depend on each other for survival. If one component changes, there
can be serious knock-up effects for the entire ecosystem.
Sustainability for the Rainforest
Uncontrolled and unchecked exploitation can cause irreversible damage such as loss of biodiversity, soil erosion and climate change.
Possible strategies include:• Agro-forestry - Growing trees and crops at the same time. It prevents
soil erosion and the crops benefit from the nutrients.• Selective logging - Trees are only felled when they reach a particular
height. • Education - Ensuring those people understand the consequences of
deforestation• Afforestation - If trees are cut down, they are replaced.• Forest reserves - Areas protected from exploitation.• Ecotourism - tourism that promotes the environments & conservation

Task 1: From the image, create some predictions as to what this production is
about due to: 1. Costume
2. Facial expression3. Gestures
Task 2: Take some inspiration from this image and write a short scene of dialogue
between these characters. What is this scene about? What is being said here?
Task 3: You are going to be a set designer for this scene. In your books draw out the stage and audience seating. Also consider the set
that will be on stage and where each character is stood.
Extension: Think about lighting and what effects you could show on stage to enhance
the performance
Whenever you perform as a new character, it is really important to know their objectives within a scene. This
will have a massive effect on how you play each line and through physical and vocal skills, you can show this
objective to the audience.

Section 1: Key Vocabulary
Tier 3 Vocabulary Definition
Linear Arranged in or extending along a straight or nearly straight line
Binary Search Binary search is an efficient algorithm for finding an item from a sorted list of items. It works by repeatedly dividing in half the portion of the list that could contain the item, until you've narrowed down the possible locations to just one.
Insertion sort A Insertion sort is a simple sorting algorithm that builds the final sorted array (or list) one item at a time. It is much less efficient on large lists than more advanced algorithms such as quicksort, heapsort, or merge sort.process or set of rules to be followed in
calculations or other
problem-solving operations,
especially by a computer.
Algorithm An algorithm is a step by step method of solving a problem. It is commonly used for data processing, calculation and other related computer and mathematical operations. An algorithm is also used to manipulate data in various ways, such as inserting a new data item, searching for a particular item or sorting an item.
Tier 2Vocabulary
Definition
Sort The arrangement of data in aprescribed sequence.
Search Try to find something by looking or otherwise seeking carefully and thoroughly.
Ascending Increasing in size or importance.
Descending moving or sloping downwards
Section 3Section 2: Key FactsQuestions: Answers:Benefits of a bubble sort?
The bubble sort algorithm works by repeatedly swapping adjacent elements that are not in order until the whole list of items is in sequence. In this way, items can be seen as bubbling up the list according to their key values. The primary advantage of the bubble sort is that it is popular and easy to implement.
Disadvantages of a bubble sort?
The main disadvantage of the bubble sort method is the time it requires. With a running time of O(n^2), it is highly inefficient for large data sets..
What is an insertion sort?
Insertion sort is a simple sorting algorithm that builds the final sorted array (or list) one item at a time. It is much less efficient on large lists than more advanced algorithms such as quicksort, heapsort, or merge sort.
Why do we have different methods of searching data?
Different algorithms might be best used in different situations. For example, sometimes an algorithm won’t work with a particular set of data, and in some instances one algorithm will be much quicker or more efficient than another.
Why do we use search algorithms?
Without them you would have to look at each item of data – each phone number or business address – individually, to see whether it is what you are looking for. In a large set of data, it will take a long time to do this. Instead, a searching algorithm can be used to help find the item of data you are looking for.
1. Name two different methods for sorting data and identify the benefits and drawback of each of each.
