You are to use your exercise book to show the work you have done. Each evening you should start a new page and put the date clearly at the top.
You need to bring your KO and exercise book with you EVERYDAY to the academy.
Your parents should tick off your homework every evening using the grid in your KO on page 4. Parents should also sign off your reading using the reading log on page 5, this will be checked in your library lesson.
Your KO and exercise book will be checked regularly in form time, failure to show homework for ALL FIVE days of the week will result in an after school detention that day.
You will also be tested in your lessons on knowledge from the organisers.
PresentationYou should take pride in how you present your work, each page should be clearly dated at the top left hand side with Subject 1 written in the middle. Half way down the page a line should divide it in two with 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.

Science SpaceThe Solar System
The Solar System consists of a star (the Sun), planets and dwarf planets that orbit the Sun, satellites (moons) that orbit the planets, comets and asteroids that orbit the Sun.In our Solar System there are eight planets Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune, as well as dwarf planets such as Pluto, Ceres and Eris.A way to remember the order of the planets is: My Very Easy Method Just Speeds Up Naming.
Stars and galaxiesStars are luminous and very hot. This is why we can see the Sun during the day, and the stars at night. There are millions of stars in a galaxy, our Sun is the closest one to us. There are at least 200 billion stars in the galaxy and around 80 billion galaxies in the universe.
The Big Bang TheoryScientists developed the Big Bang Theory based on the evidence they have collected. The theory states that all the matter in the Universe was concentrated into a single tiny point. This began to enlarge rapidly in an explosion, and it is still expanding today.Evidence for the Big Bang includes: All the galaxies are moving away from us The further away a galaxy is, the faster it is moving away Background radiation thought to be left over from the explosion
Life cycle of a starThe life cycle of a star depends on its size. The star starts off as a cloud of gas, which gets denser and hotter. It is then a Protostar. Over time it gets hotter and the pressure increases, and it releases a massive amount of energy. This is when it becomes a main sequence star. After millions of years the reactions that produce the energy that makes the star keep giving out heat and light slow down. The star expands and cools down. This is when it becomes a red giant. If it is a star similar to our Sun, then it will continue to cool down and give off some of its gases to become a white dwarf.If it is a very large star, it will undergo an explosion called a supernova. This results in a neutron star which is very dense spinning star or a black hole, which is a small dense object that has such strong gravity it can even suck in other stars.

Hints and Tips - What do we been by BC and AD? What makes something significant?
In History, there can be many reasons why something is significant. Many significant events and people in History have a legacy. When thinking about how the Romans are significant you should ask yourself these questions:
Did it cause a change? Did it affect a lot of people? Do we still use it today? Why?
Subject specific knowledgeThe Romans liked to keep clean. Towns and forts had underground pipes to take away dirty water and sewage. The drain pipes were flushed with water to keep them clean and stop them from smelling bad.
The Romans spoke Latin. Many European languages (known as the Romantic languages) such as French, Spanish and Italian all come from the Latin the Romans spoke. Millions of people speak these languages across the world!
The Romans, even today, play an important part in our lives. For example the Romans gave us a census.This was so they could keep track of everyone across their huge empire. This allows our government to make decisions about how to provide for the country.
Claudius Galen is considered to be one of the most famous doctors in medical history. His ideas about medicine, such as the theory of opposites, was used for over 1,300 years across Europe!
The Roman Empire (753 BC - 476 AD)
BC stands for Be-fore Christ.
AD stands for Anno Domini but most people think After Death (of Jesus Christ).
