1.3 Contextual Knowledge

The Holocaust was the systematic, state-sponsored persecution and murder of six million Jews by the Nazi regime and its allies and collaborators. Holocaust is a word of Greek origin meaning ‘sacrifice by fire’. The Nazis, who came to power in Germany in January 1933, believed that Germans were ‘racially superior’ and that the Jews, deemed ‘inferior’, were an alien threat to the so-called German racial community.

1.4 How close is Auschwitz to Germany?

1.2 Key Quotes:

‘We should never have let the Fury come to dinner.’

–Mother, Chapter 5

‘Those people ... well, they're not people at all, Bruno.’ -Father, Chapter 5

‘Just because a man glances up at the sky at night does not make him an astronomer.’

-Pavel, Chapter 7

‘Standing there in your uniform ... Not even caring what it means really. What it stands for.’

-Nathalie, Chapter 8

‘We are correcting history here.’ -Father, Chapter 13

‘If I had a pair of striped pjyamas ... I could come over on a visit.’Bruno, Chapter 18

Challenge yourself to annotate these quotes:

1.1 Key Vocabulary

Auschwitz: Auschwitz was the largest of the German Nazi concentration camps and extermination centres. Over 1.1 million men, women and children lost their lives here.Anti-Semitism: Anti-Semitism, hostility toward or discrimination against Jews as a religious or racial group. The term Anti-Semitism was coined in 1879 by the German agitator Wilhelm Marr to designate the anti-Jewish campaigns under way in central Europe at that time.Holocaust: The killing of millions of Jews and others by the Nazis before and during the Second World War.Nazism: Full National Socialism, totalitarian movement led by Adolf Hitler as head of the Nazi Party in Germany. Intense nationalism, mass appeal, and dictatorial rule; extreme both in its ideas and in its practice. It incorporates fervent Anti-Semitism, scientific racism, and the use of eugenics into its creed.

Many people do not realise that Auschwitz was in fact in Poland. It was close to Germany but in an entirely different country. Auschwitz was probably chosen to play a central role in the ‘final solution’ because it was located at a railway junction with 44 parallel tracks—rail lines that were used to transport Jews from throughout Europe to their death.

Analaysing and Displaying Data

What do I need to be able to do?

By the end of this unit you should be able to: • Understand and use mode, median, mean

and range• Read and draw pictograms, bar charts, bar

line charts, and line graphs• Read and construct grouped tally charts

and frequency tables

The Mean

Find the sum of the data (add the values)

24 + 8 + 4 + 11 + 8 = 55

Divide the overall total by how many pieces of data you have

55 ÷ 5 = 11 Mean = 11

The Median

Put the data in order4, 8, 8, 11, 24Find the value in the middle

4, 8, 8, 11, 24 Median = 8

NOTE: If there is no single middle value find the mean of the two numbers left

The Mode (The modal value)

Mode = 8

This can still be easier if the data is ordered first. There can be more than one mode

24, 8, 4, 11, 8, Mean, Median, Mode and Range (405-410)

4, 8, 8, 11, 24

If all data values appear the same number of times then there is no mode.

The Range

This can still be easier if the data is ordered first.

4, 8, 8, 11, 24

24 – 4 = 20 Range = 20

Subtract the smallest value from the largest value

Key words to learn:1. Drawing:Observational drawing– Drawing something exactly as one sees it.Shading– Lines or marks used to fill in outlines to show differences in colour or darkness.Highlights– The parts of an object on which the light is strongest.Shadows– The parts of an object which are dark.Range of tones– All the tones between highlights and shadows.

2. Colour:Primary colour– The 3 colours, red, yellow and blue, used in combination (along with white and black) to make all other colours.Secondary colour– Colours, green, purple and orange, made by mixing 2 primary colours.Tint– A colour made by mixing colour with white.Shade– A colour made by mixing colour with black.Complementary colours– Colours that appear on opposite sides of the colour wheel, which when used together, create contrast.

3. General terms:Materials- the different things we use to make art e.g. paint, pencil, pastel, pen etcTechnique- a method for making artSymmetry– When shapes, lines, forms etc. look similar on opposite sides of a line. Mirror image.Trace– To copy an image using tracing paper Design- to draw out an idea/ a drawing of an ideaLayout- the arrangement of elements on a surfaceComposition- arrangement of objects/ shapes/ forms within an artwork

Sketchbooks:Artists use sketchbooks in one of two ways. We document what we see and experience around us, this is observation. Or, we’ll record ideas that we have, developing and improving them as we work, this is working imaginatively. We will work in both ways during our art projects, and we will use your sketchbooks to contain both your classwork and independent study.

FRIDA KAHLO

1907-1954Most famous Mexican artistKnown for her self-portrait and portrait paintings Used her personal life experiences, family, husband and pets in her paintingsShe contracted polio at the age of 6 and was left disabled by the diseaseShe suffered with constant pain from a serious bus accident at the age of 18, she broke her spine, pelvis and many other bones She taught herself to paint whilst recovering in hospitalShe married Mexican artist Diego Rivera

USING TONE TO MAKE OBJECTS LOOK 3D:To prevent objects looking flat, add a range of tonal shading to make objects look 3D.Pressing harder and softer with a pencil OR using different layers of marks, creates the different tones.As a surface goes away from you the tones usually darken.Shading straight across a surface will make an item appear flat.Use the direction of your pencil to help enhance the 3D surface.Including shadows will also help make objects appear 3D and separate objects from each other.

Facial Proportions:The face is roughly symmetrical.Eyes are half way down the head.Nose is half way between the eyes and the chin.Mouth is half way between the nose and the chin.Top of the ears are level with the eyes and the bottom are level with the nose.The corners of the mouth line up with the pupils of the eyes.

Artists paint self-portraits and portraits not just to represent the visual appearance of a human being, but to show power, importance, virtue, beauty, wealth, taste, learning or other qualities of the person.

festivals The Christian calendar influences British traditions such as

Valentine's day (a Saint’s Day), Pancake Day (or Shrove Tuesday) and Hallowe’en (the day before All Saint’s Day).

Three common revision techniques that are LEAST effective in helping you revise are:•Highlighting texts•Re-reading•Summarising text

FlashcardsSimply create with questions on side andanswers on the other side. You can colour code

for specific topics and quiz yourself or others.

Post its can be also useful for key words and timelines

Using FlashcardsUsing the Leitner Method, using the video belowhttps://youtu.be/C20EvKtdJwQ

You can also create excellent flashcards online or on your phone using Quizlet which also had an app.

Retrieval PracticeTesting what you know is a powerful tool in revision, the effort to remember something really strengthens your memory

Apps such as Memrise and Quizlet allow you to use or create your own quizzes based on topics. Lots of subjects are also supported by Seneca. Create them, test yourself or get someone to test you, it’s works!

TypesThere are a number of types you can create:

• Multiple Choice Questions

• True or False

• Short Explanation Questions

• Odd One Out

• If this is the answer then what is the question

Spaced

Test on old and new topics mixed up

Knowledge Organisers

Use to create ‘must know’ quizzes for a topic

Factors/Causes/Consequences

To identify 2-3 factors, causes of an event/person e.g. The rising against Tostig

Examples

‘Give two examples of……’

Dual CodingDual coding’ is the method of putting your knowledge into visual form alongside words. It increases the chances of you remembering it.

How to:1.Use simple drawings with

matching simple descriptions

2. The drawing should represent your understanding of the topic

3.Try to draw links between images

An example activity you can do its creating a comic strip to represent the events of the Battle of Hastings

Deliberate PracticeSet aside time to practice improving your knowledge or skills. Choose what you need to do, it must be tough enough to challenge you, and practice, practice, practice!

You should focus on something that you are almost able to do but not just yet!

1.Use a model answer from the teacher, pull it apart and identify the key parts. Then answer a similar question and try to replicate

2.Study material, complete practice questions in timed conditions. Then use your notes to correct / improve your answer.

Transform It

Examples:

1. Causation – Create a visual flow diagram of the events or actions in the order that they happen.

2. Change and Continuity – Create a Venn diagram to show what changed and did not

3. Concept Mapping– At the end of a week, mind map all you can remember about a topic and link area together. Then add to your mind map using a different colour using notes

Graphic organisers are a great way of ‘transforming’ your notes/information into visual revision topics.

They can be used to create links, show a narrative, identify the causes/consequences and importance of something.

Interleaving and SpacingDon’t revise your all topics in one go (cramming), you should revise ‘chunks’ of a topic for small amounts of time (15 minutes) and then move onto another ‘chunk’ from a different topic. This will improve your memory!

You should always focus on the topics you are least confident on.

1.Create a revision plan to cover topics you need to cover (least confident first!) and then go back over them again later. Spread our your learning in small sections, 5 hours to 5 x 1 hour

2. Use your flashcards to self test yourself on old and new topics, self testing across these

The Big Picture

The best way to aid your understanding of a topic is to make sure you are confident with the big ‘overview’ story or information before you begin individual topics.
