** SUMMER TERM 2009 **  Lesson 3 8DE Drama Using your computer produce a short 30 second movie that explores a work related role in society. For example: nursing, teaching, firefighting, boxing etc Use iMovie or the equivalent and drop in images to make a slide show, then add music that goes with the images. Try to make the presentation good to watch. You could also build it in Garageband, but there will be no fancy transitions. You can get music from incompetech.com. Try to get it finished by the end of the lesson. It does not need a voiceover, but you might want to use some captions.

Lesson 5 7GS <span style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Read your textbook from where we last left off through to the page that shows two views of the same town, one before and one after. Using your knowledge of any place, draw a before and after picture. You can go no further in the future than 2030, and you cannot have flying cars etc, everything must be realistic. Draw these in your books and write a short paragraph about what you would find in each time zone. DRAW IN PENCIL AND COLOUR YOUR WORK. PENCILS AND EXERCISE BOOKS IN THE CLASSROOM.

Search, for example, for "mountains in china" or "subtropical areas in china."

1. Paragraph 1 in Wikipedia, reference above, provides a list of different landscape types in China. Find an image of each of these kinds of terrain and put them into a document. Write some information beneath the image and also describe what you can see in the photograph. For example:

This is Muztagh Ata, which lies in the far west of China in Xinjiang. Its elevation is 7546m and is part of the chain of mountains called the Karakoram which is part of the Himalayas. This is the same range that K2 belongs to. It is the 43rd highest mountain in the world. The first person to ascend the mountain was E. A. Beletskiy in 1956. Its name means father of ice mountains in Uighur. In the photograph you can see the grassy plains in the foreground rising steeply to the snow capped altitudes of the mountain. Notice the barren mountains in the midground which are above the tree/vegetation line, but below the snow line.

This place has to have settlements with the following criteria. Name the settlements. 1. A town that was originally built because it was a place where you could cross the river 2. A town that was originally built because it was a port 3. A town that was originally built because it was a defensive settlement 4. A town that was built recently as a holiday resort 5.

Then write a made up history of this area, about the local rulers and what they did to set up these towns. What they had an interest in, which local wars etc supported the building of each settlement or what other kinds of events. The resort town for example is likely to be fairly young and the defensive settlement, or the river crossing are likely to be old. Also because your map is in modern times, older settlements might have grown and taken on other functions. Read the first few pages of the chapter on settlements in your books for ideas. <span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 255);">

Lesson 3 7AL (Drama) <span style="font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Last week we looked at a range of drama games and we voted which ones were good ones. Think about the good ones, and what made them good. Have the teacher hand out the little blue books. They should be handed out to you in alphabetical order, so they are easy to give back out! Plan yourself a game. Think about whether it would be fun. Try to think about what would make it dull and be ever ready to go "back to the drawing board." After half of the lesson, describe it to a partner. Write down the rules. Remember the simpler the better. Next lesson we will try some of them and you will have to explain them.

The small blue books are at the front of my desk on one of the sets of drawers. There is a box of pens somewhere in the drawers if you need them.

Either during prep time or during supper, talk to your parents about what you saw on the expedition, and go through the booklets with them. Now, a week after the expedition you can reflect a little upon it. It also reminds us during Spirit Week that the Jo Charles Foundation goes to help people who are living in the kind of poverty that some in Shanghai live in, and sometimes, much worse.

Cover for Dr Lee on Friday 5 June for 8AW I have updated the requirements for your project. The link for this is above. Information is in PDF format. Please spend the first 10-15 minutes of the lesson reading this document and then continue with your project work. By now you should have decided who you are going to interview. I recommend you conduct your interviews this weekend and so by the end of this lesson you will need a set of questions. Remember that you will also need to leave some time for your interviewee to talk for themselves about things you were not aware -- do not expect your questions to reveal all the answers. You will also need to test the recording function on your computer so you know how to use it. You might want to use iMovie (for video) or GarageBand for sound only.

<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 255);">Year 9 (9RM) Lesson 4 Tuesday 26 May 2009 ** See the Development Aid work we began last lesson. You should do some research and then **once** you have determined a need, create a specific charity. There is more information about this work on the sheet here as we discussed last lesson. This can be produced on your computers.

<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 255);">**Year 8 (8AW) Lesson 5 Tuesday 26 May 2009** I forgot to tell you in class yesterday, that I was really proud of your efforts on stage for Cabaret. Well done to the choreographers and all the dancers. Glad Zach could make it back. Zach, could you please see Mrs Chen in the library during this lesson to do your geography test. It takes an hour.

Our next unit of work is on stereotypes and I would like you to prepare a piece. I want you to think about one of the stereotypes you are aware of it could be for a policeman, teacher, judge, football player, old woman etc. I want you to prepare a 30-40 second piece being a typical character of the type chosen. I also want you to perform right alongside (immediately after) an example of a very atypical (unexpected kind) of this person. For example a stereotypical judge might be arrogant, precise and standing upright, but a very atypical judge might be telling jokes, grinning and having a laugh at himself.

After 15 minutes of thinking through and trying things out you can then work with a partner to see what they are doing and give them some constructive criticism. You should swap over and give each other suggestions and help each other out.

This work will be assessed next lesson (so you might need to do some prep!)

<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 255);">**Year 7 Transport** Year 7 is currently completing a project on Transport Design in Shanghai. Details of this project can be found here: Dr Lee will be away on expedition with Year 10 to Yangshuo during the week beginning Monday 18 May. This work will be done during lesson times during this week and will be completed in class in the following week. Prep set involves the working on this project. Work is to be completed in exercise books with the exception of 7MP, who began their projects digitally and can choose to complete theirs electronically or on paper. (All project work, will however have to be printed and glued into exercise books).

For prep please continue with this project.

<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 255);">**Year 8 Population** This is assessment week for Year 8. After your assessment you should do the following. Migration is the movement from one place to another by a person who intends to shift their place of residence. In this project you are to find a person who has migrated, it might be a parent, a friend, an aunt or uncle, your Ayi, your parents' driver etc, it might be someone with whom you can talk who lives in another country by telephone or SKYPE. Look at the concept of PUSH and PULL factors in your textbook. Work out by discussing with your chosen person what the push and pull factors were when they moved. Make a two double page spread in your exercise book that includes the following:

Name of person Photograph of person (if possible) or drawing Date of migration Push Factors Pull Factors What was the experience like: what were the good things, the bad things, the difficult things. Employment: How was employment difficult? 5 Years on: Were they happy they moved? Draw a map of the world showing where they moved from and to. Include an excerpt from a conversation you had that helps to explain their experience.

Work on this this week, and next week we will draw it to a conclusion. Your homework will be to make up some questions to ask your chosen person and to contact them and ask them.

NB: Your flowchart should already be complete and in your books (see below).

You have spent some lesson time on this and some prep time. You should continue to work on this. It should include a picture, a map of where it might run, information on why it is a good form of transport, a logo etc. Here are some examples of transport logos. Perhaps you will recognise some. **NO PREP TONIGHT**.



<span style="color: rgb(5, 102, 21);">**Lesson 3 7AL Drama** There is a house meeting during this lesson. If you come back early you can have a silent reading lesson. If you do not have a library book, 'shame on you!' Ask the teacher whether you might go to the library to get one.

<span style="color: rgb(5, 102, 21);">**Lesson 4 9RM Geography** You should have some work to hand in today. This should be your countries with pie charts showing employment structure (Primary/Secondary/Tertiary) for three kinds of countries MEDC/LEDC/NIC. Please make sure these are printed, trimmed and glued into your books today. If you don't have your books they should be on the side.

Once this is done work through this site: http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/gcsebitesize/geography/development/developmentwhatisitrev1.shtml Read it carefully as it is full of information and complicated in parts. At the end you can do the "Now do a test byte." Remember your score. **NO PREP TONIGHT**.

Geography Prep for 8AW Monday 4 April ** <span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-weight: normal;">TODAY we went through Chapter 5 on Population. You had been asked to read this last week when I was in Hong Kong. For Prep, you are to download the text from pages 84 and 85 which can be found in the Additional Spaces link on the left hand side. Copy and paste this text into a new file, update/localise this information for China and not for the UK, as it now is. Find a map showing population density of China (A), a list of cities in China (B) and pictures of high and low density from China (D) and (E). You do not have to write the activities list for China.


 * <span style="font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);"> We also have some outstanding work from last week. This is the work that was set:

//<span style="font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Create a graph that shows the populations of the world's top 10 cities (by size). Build this in an Excel document. Find images of overcrowding for each city and put this with a short annotation on your graph. Put your name on the graph with a suitable title. Print it, trim it, cut it out neatly and glue it into your books. Books are in the classroom by the door if you haven't got yours.

<span style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">We also need to look at your farm expedition. So there is a lot to be done.

What is due when? By next lesson have the textbook work done, and during the next lesson we will work on the population set to get it to a finished state. Hope this makes sense. I will also publish what your assessment will cover, here, once it is finalised with Mrs Aellen.
