They learned how to structure an effective essay, responding to exam-style questions and organising ideas clearly using evidence, with opportunities to review model answers and reflect on success criteria. They then built on this by comparing poems, including <em>Who\u2019s For The Game?<\/em>, identifying similarities and differences in how poets present attitudes towards war, and supporting their ideas with relevant quotations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><br>In Science, students completed their solar system models first, ensuring the planets reflected their relative sizes and deepening their understanding of scale. They then explored how our understanding of the solar system has changed over time by creating a timeline of key ideas and discoveries. Working individually or in pairs, they researched important figures such as Ptolemy and Nicolaus Copernicus, explaining how new evidence led to changes in scientific thinking. This helped students understand both how models represent complex systems and how scientific ideas develop over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This week in Geography, students completed their work on the Silk Road, finishing their detailed posters. These showcased the trade routes, geographical challenges, and how collaboration between different groups of people enabled the exchange of goods, ideas, and cultures across regions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Year 8<\/strong><br>Students have been learning how to calculate the&nbsp;<strong>area of trapezium and circles<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Sum.2.5:<\/strong>\u00a0Area of circles and parts (without a calculator)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Sum.2.6:<\/strong>\u00a0Area of circles (with a calculator)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Sum.2.7:<\/strong>\u00a0Perimeter and area of compound shapes<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u00a0<strong>Assessment:<\/strong>\u00a0Students completed an assessment and performed well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Year 9<br><\/strong><strong>Rates<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In this topic, students explore how math is used in everyday situations involving rates:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Working with\u00a0<em>speed, distance, and time<\/em><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Reading and interpreting\u00a0<em>distance\u2013time graphs<\/em><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Solving problems with\u00a0<em>density, mass, and volume<\/em><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Focus is on applying formulas and improving problem-solving skills in real-life contexts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image
