the sight of what he assumes are official 'librarians' burning Jewish books in the orphanage, he sets off in search of his parents to warn them of the danger. On his travels Felix uses his natural optimism and storytelling gift to explain away the horrific events he witnesses in Nazi-occupied

Poland. His stories bring hope to the people suffering the same horrific circumstances as Felix. A story of hope, horror, friendship and fear.

Context

Judaism

A religion very similar to Christianity, however, with a belief only in the Old Testament. Jewish

people believe in God as the Creator.

Poland in 1942

The novel is set in Poland in 1942. This was nine years after Hitler’s rise to power. By this time, Hitler

was already in control of Poland (the Nazis invaded Poland in

1939).

Adolf Hitler

Hitler took control of Germany in 1933. He was a passionate

speaker and persuaded people to support him. Those who did not agree with Hitler were punished

or killed.

World War 2

Hitler invaded Poland in 1939, This prompted Britain and France to declare war against Germany.

Britain and France, working together, were known as the

Allies. Holocaust

Hitler began a regime known as the Holocaust, persecuting Jews,

Roma Gypsies, homosexuals, mentally and physically disabled people, and anyone who spoke

against them.

Boycott and Censorship

Hitler’s first act against Jews was a boycott of Jewish business and

an enforced segregation of Jewish people. He also

committed acts of censorship, burning all Jewish books.

Kristallnacht and Ghettos

Kristallnacht (the night of glass) was a physical attack on Jewish

homes and businesses and began the regime of forcing Jews

to live in the Ghettos.

Final Solution

Hitler’s ultimate aim was to destroy the Jewish race. Hitler

opened Death Camps, in which Jews were imprisoned, enslaved

and killed. Approximately 6 million Jews were killed.

What do I need to be able to do? By the end of this unit you should be able to:• Describe and

continue both linear and non-linear sequences

• Explain term to term rules for linear sequence

• Find missing terms in a sequence

Describe and continue a sequence diagrammatically What will the next number be? Can you draw this?

Count the number of circles or lines in each image

Continue Linear Sequences 7, 11, 15, 19… How do I know this is a linear sequence? It increases by adding 4 to each term.How many terms do I need to make this conclusion? At least 4 terms – two terms only shows one difference not if this difference is constant. (a common difference). How do I continue the sequence? You continue to repeat the same difference through the next positions in the sequence

Year 7 Mathematics Term 1 Knowledge Organiser Algebraic Thinking – Sequences

Predict and check terms Predictions: Look at your pattern and consider how it will increase. e.g. How many lines in pattern 6? Prediction - 13 If it is increasing by 2 each time - in 3 more patterns there will be 6 more lines

Linear and Non Linear Sequences Linear Sequences – increase by addition or subtraction and the same amount each timeNon-linear Sequences – do not increase by a constant amount – quadratic, geometric and Fibonacci. • Do not plot as straight lines when modelled graphically • The differences between terms can be found by addition, subtraction, multiplication or division. Fibonacci Sequence – look out for this type of sequence0 1 1 2 3 5 8 …

Each term is the sum of the previous two terms.

Explain term-to-term rule How you get from term to term Try to explain this in full sentences not just with mathematical notation. Use key maths language – doubles, halves, multiply by two, add four to the previous term etc. To explain a whole sequence you need to include a term to begin at…

Continue non-linear Sequences 1, 2, 4, 8, 16 … How do I know this is a non-linear sequence? It increases by multiplying the previous term by 2. – this is a geometric sequence because the constant is multiply by 2 How many terms do I need to make this conclusion? At least 4 terms – two terms only shows one difference not if this difference is constant. (a common difference). How do I continue the sequence? You continue to repeat the same difference through the next positions in the sequence.

Random error Causes readings to be spread about the true value, due to results varying in an unpredictable way. The effect can be reduced by making more measurements and calculating a new mean.

Systematic error Causes readings to differ from the true value by a consistent amount each time. Cannot be dealt with by simple repeats. Experiment should be repeated using different equipment or technique.

Zero error When a measuring system gives a false reading when the true value of a measured quantity is zero. 

Interval The quantity between readings, e.g. a set of 11 readings equally spaced over a distance of 1m would give an interval of 10cm.

Precise Where there is very little spread about the mean value. Precision depends only on the extent of random errors – it gives no indication of how close results are to the true value.

Compass Points The four main points of the compass are north, east, south and west. Half way between each of these there are four other points: north-east, south-east, south-west and north-west.

Lines of latitude Lines of latitude circle the Earth in an east-west direction. They are parallel. Lines of longitude run from the top of the Earth to the bottom. They meet at a point at the north and south poles and are called meridians.

Physical and political maps There are two types of maps; Physical maps - show natural features such as rivers and mountains. Political maps – show artificial features such as borders and countries.

Year 7 Food Technology Subject Term Knowledge OrganiserHealth and safety:Hygiene – we follow hygiene rules to reduce the risk of spreading harmful bacteria which can give us food poisoning and contaminating food with non‐food items.Safety – we follow safety rules to reduce the risk of accidents such as: cuts, burns, falls.

Sizzle test:The sizzle test show you when you pan is at the correct temperature for cooking.  This ensures that you food does not soak up the fat/ oil and also that you pan does not get too hot which can result in a pan fire. To conduct the sizzle test, place one piece of food (usually onion) in the pan with oil.  Turn your pan on.  When the food sizzles, the pan is ready for the rest of your ingredients. 

Pan safety: Do not leave you pan unattended. Make sure your pan handles do not hang over the front of the hob. 

Washing up:• Remove any food from dishes into the bin.• Stack dishes next to sink – sharp knifes should be placed behind the sink.• Fill bowl with HOT soapy water.• Wash cleanest items first!!• When washing knifes always keep hold of them and place carefully on 

draining board.• Dry items thoroughly.• Clean sink.

Cooking Rice:• Do not stir rice• Always use cold water• Do not let the water boil dry• Drain rice as soon as it is cooked

Cutting an onion: Cut onion in half so that the roots are on both pieces.Chip‐ cut the onion in long sections. Do not cut all the way through to the root. Dice‐ Cut across the onion into small dices.  

Starch Gelatinisation: When we make sauces such as: Cheese sauce, Gravy or Sweet and sour we use flour to thicken the sauce. Flour is a starch. It is the starch in the flour which is used to thicken the sauce and this process is called Starch Gelatinisation. 

Reduction (reduced sauce):Reduction is the process that thickens liquids such as sauces and soups by simmeringthem.  This causes the water to evaporate.  This also concentrates the flavour of the sauce making it more intense.Common reduced sauces include; tomato pasta sauce (Ragu), curries and gravy.  Reduced sauces can also be sweet in taste such as apple or raspberry coulis. 

Heat Transfer:Conduction: Heat transfers through a solid.Convection: Heat transfer through a gas or a liquidRadiation: Heat transfers through the atmosphere

Lamination:Rubbing in coats the flour with fat, this helps when making baked goods as it stops water/liquids getting in to the flour. The process of rubbing in is also called lamination as you are laminating the flour with fat

MosesMoses was a Hebrew who was brought up with the Pharaoh. He witnessed the Hebrews being treated cruelly as slaves and challenged the Pharaoh to free them. God helped Moses to free the Hebrews by inflicting ten plagues upon the Egyptians. The Hebrews were freed and Moses led them for many years until they reached the Promised Land. Moses was a prophet and was given commandments by God to spread amongst the Hebrews.

Rites of PassageWhen boys and girls ‘come of age’ they have a special ceremony called a Bar Mitzvah (boys) or Bat Mitzvah (girls). After the ceremony, they person is considered responsible for their own actions and faith.Young Jews are expected to study and prepare carefully for their ceremony.After the ceremony has taken place a special meal is shared and there is often a party held with family, friends and the community.

MitzvotThere are 613 commandments or mitzvot! The most well-known are the Ten Commandments. Jews believe that the commandments are a gift, given to help them.

Jews have different ways of interpreting the mitzvot. Some believe that they should be followed at all times, no matter how difficult they are. Others believe that it’s acceptable only to follow commandments that are relevant in the modern world.

ShabbatSaturday is an important day of the week as the Jewish creation story says that on this day God rested. Jewish people will also rest on this day.Many Jews take the rules about resting very seriously! For example, they will not use electronic devices and they will not drive their car. They will spend time with their family and the community.Observing the Shabbat is one of the Ten Commandments given to Moses.

FestivalsRosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. Rosh Hashanah is the first day of the Jewish new year. On the ten days between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur Jews will reflect on their behaviour from the previous year. On Yom Kippur Jews have a chance to seek forgiveness from God.Passover/Pesach Jews remember the night they
