What is a Curriculum Map?
A Curriculum Map is an A4 document for each of your subjects that tells you the knowledge, skills
and understanding you will be learning over the year. It is provided to help you track what you are
learning and when. They will be stuck into your exercise books and available on the school website.

What are Unit Sheets?
The Curriculum Map is broken down into separate Unit Sheets. These provide more detailed
knowledge, skills and vocabulary for each subject. They will be stuck in your books throughout the
year as you address new units of work.

Why are Curriculum Maps and Unit Sheets important?
Over your 5 years at secondary school, you need to memorise more information than ever before.
Everything you learn from years 7-11 helps to build your knowledge and skill set to prepare you
for your future learning and GCSE exams. The Curriculum Maps and Unit Sheets help you to
identify the most important knowledge and skills you need to commit to your long-term memory
and to learn over the years.

How should you use your Curriculum Maps and Unit Sheets?
Firstly, you should read them to get an overview of what you are learning.
Then you could revise key information, skills and vocabulary. One of the best methods is to self-
test e.g. you could look, cover, write and check.
At the end of a unit you could RAG (red, amber, green) your learning to identify what you know
well and discover any gaps in your knowledge that you need to revise.
If you are absent, they can be helpful to catch up with and reinforce missed work.
In lessons, your teachers will guide you as to how they can be used further.

What is the ‘how can I revise’ section?
In this section, each subject has provided you with further support and techniques on how to
revise including websites and useful links. You can work on these independently and develop your
revision strategies.

What are ‘super-curricular’ activities?
Super-curricular activities are suggested for each unit of work and these are designed for you to
be scholarly and challenge yourself further. By completing super-curricular activities, you will
deepen and broaden your knowledge in your subjects beyond the classroom.

How can I revise for assessments?
Rehearsals outside of lessons will help you feel assured in practical assessments.
When learning lines you can practise with a friend or relative. You could record yourself on a phone and listen to your lines. You can then record your cues and speak your lines in the gaps. You can look, cover,
recite and check.
ALWAYS TAKE A PICTURE ON YOUR PHONE OF YOUR SCRIPT JUST IN CASE YOU LOSE IT.
Make flash cards and/or mind maps of the techniques and definitions and use Quizlet to test yourself at intervals.

Geography for home learning. This has lots of revision presentations and quizzes so you can test yourself and receive instant feedback. Simply search on the website using the key terms or skills that you would
like to test yourself on. Your teachers will also allocate specific tasks for you to complete.
Here are just a few ideas for revising specific parts of your geographical studies:
      •    For key terms and definitions, make a set of heads and tails cards and practise alone. You could also get others to test you.
      •    For revising processes: there are often several different types of processes e.g. for erosion. Draw annotated diagrams on revision card for each type of process.
      •    For revising the formation of features: take a geographical feature, such as a waterfall. Split the development of it into its component parts. Step 1, step 2, step 3 etc. Cut up each step. Put them back
           into the correct order. Highlight the key term.
      •    For revising case studies: draw a mind-map to include all the different aspects and categories involved in your case study.
      •    For revising an issue-based topic: use a table to capture argument for and against the issue.
      •    For revising map skills: Doddle Learn has a variety of activities to help you to test yourself in every area of map skills.

How can I revise for assessments?
Create a mind map, using different colours to represent Point, Evidence and Explanation. Turn your revision notes into a song, Horrible Histories style (like we did in class). Play bingo using
the key words. Make cue cards about the key events. Create a timeline of the topics learnt.

How can I revise in this subject?
You will be given a log on to ‘Focus on Sound’ in Year 7. This resources has hours of information, lessons, tests and listening on a variety of topics. It covers information for key stage 3, GCSE
and A level. It is a fantastic resource. You will be directed to relevant sections during Year 7, but feel free to explore and deepen your musical understanding by yourself.

Super Curricular: Lots of articles, books and example of things to do will be appearing on the learning zone. To get you started here are some ideas…
Look at the Bournemouth natural science society website – they have a programme of science and history events for young people up to the age of 12. Attend an event and
write a short report on what you learnt.
Google the “James Dyson Foundation Challenge Cards”. Try out some of the challenges – bring in a photo of your successes. Can you explain how it worked?
Watch the Bournemouth Airshow or visit the Bournemouth Aviation Museum near Bournemouth airport. When you get home, research fast jets. How does a jet engine
work? Why do the pilots not pass out when carrying out manoeuvres?
