Revision topics for Food Preparation and Nutrition GCSE.

You will be assessed on three of the four assessment objectives in the written exam.

Percentage

Assessment Objectives

What does this mean ?

AO1

20%

Demonstrate knowledge and understanding of nutrition, food, cooking and preparation

Give facts and information, add layers of facts i.e.

Basic fact: protein is for growth, maintenance and repair.

Layer one: It is found in animal and plant forms.

Layer two: HBV proteins give all of the essential amino acids

AO2

20%

Apply knowledge and understanding of nutrition, food, cooking and preparation

Give examples and explain why i.e.

Protein is an essential part of the diet, it enables us to develop muscle and repair our bodies. It is easy to provide if you eat a wide range of foods. Vegans and vegetarians would need to eat a wider range of sources to ensure they got all of the essential amino acids. For example, beans on toast with cheese would provide all of the essential amino acids. Eating just the cheese would do the same.

AO3

-

Plan prepare, cook and present dishes, combining appropriate techniques

This is NOT examined in the written paper it is your PRACTICAL cooking session.

AO4

10%

Analyse and evaluate different aspects of nutrition, food, cooking and preparation, including food made by yourself and others

Analyse why things happen, explain what is going on in a dish. Explain and evaluate which product/method would be best. For example:

Using plain flour in choux pastry would give you a good result as it has a reasonably high gluten content. However, using bread flour, which has a higher gluten content would give you a better result as the protein would give a stronger structure and trap more air. This would give a lighter and crisper product.

The Exam:

You will be tested on the six areas of content:

1. Food Commodities

2. Principles of Nutrition

3. Diet and good health

4. The science of food

5. Where food comes from

Year 11 Geography Exam 2019

We study the EDUQAS Specification B course.

The exam is made up of three parts. Paper 1, is 1 hour 45 mins long. It is based on questions from Theme 1, 2 and 3. Each theme contains a series of compulsory questions which start off short and then build in length and complexity. Paper 2, is 1 hour 30 mins long. It is made up of three sections and is a problems solving or Decision Making Exercise (DME) where you learn about an issue or problem and attempt to solve it. You then work through a series of questions to help you to decide upon a project to support and then write an extended letter or report to make your views/decision clear. Paper 3, is 1 hour 30 mins and tests your fieldwork skills and your ability to apply what you have learnt at Dawlish Warren and in Exeter to a series of scenarios.

MUSIC GCSE

You will be taking one exam:

Edexcel Listening Exam1h 45m

Written response to extracts played on a CD, based on the 8 Set Works and one extended writing question.

You are required to study the following pieces of Music: 1. Instrumental Music: J.S Bach & Beethoven2. Vocal Music: Purcell & Queen 3. Music for Stage & Screen: Defying Gravity & Star Wars4. Fusions: Afro Celt Sound System & Esperanza Spalding

You will explore the structure, rhythm, melody, harmony, use of instruments, tonality and texture of each set work.

Variety of question styles Section A:

6 x set works questions, 1 x Musical Dictation (rhythm and melody), 1 x unfamiliar (but related to a set work)

Musical analysis question

Section B:

Compare in detail a set work and an unfamiliar listening piece. You will be asked to evaluate, conclude, refer to other music and be aware of the musical context(s).

You will be marked on your spelling and grammar in this question.

Language for learning

You know and understand that use of specific vocabulary is crucial to demonstrate that you have a clear understanding of the questions in the listening exam. You also know that for descriptive questions you need to give a reason and back it up with musical knowledge.

A number of forces can be replaced by a single force called the resultant. Must be able to calculate the resultant of two forces acting in a straight line. HT only - be able to resolve a single force into horizontal and vertical components. Draw vector diagrams to illustrate resolution of forces.

6.5.2

Work done and energy transfer

Work = force x distance. Distance moved along the line of the force. W=Fs. 1 Joule = 1 newton-metre. Be able to covert between Nm and Joules. Work done against friction causes a rise in temperature of the object.

6.5.4.1.4

distance-time relationship

distance v time graph, using gradient to calculate speed. Interpret dist v time graphs. HT only - if an object is accelerating you can work out its speed at a particular time by drawing a tangent and measuring the gradient.

6.5.4.1.5

Acceleration

acceleration= change in velocity/ time taken, a = v/t, deceleration, estimate everyday accelerations, acceleration due to gravity near the Earth's surface is 9.8 m/s, using gradient to work out acceleration, Draw velocity time graphs HT only - work out the distance travelled using the area under the line of a velocity-time graph - including the system of counting squares. Use v-u=2as. v is final velocity, u is the initial velocity. Know how an object falling through a fluid intially accelerates and eventually reaches terminal velocity when the forces are balanced. Free fall. Parachutists

6.5.4.2.1

Newton's 1st law

If the resultant force is zero, a stationary object will stay still, a moving object will keep moving at the same speed in the same direction ie same velocity. Inertia - the tendency of objects to continue to either stay still or keep moving.

6.5.4.2.2

Newton's 2nd law

The acceleration of an object is proportional to the resultant forceacting on the object, and inversely proportional to the mass of theobject. F=ma. HT only inertial mass is a measure of how difficult it is to change the velocity of an object, inertial mass is defined as the ratio of force over acceleration m=f/a. Required practical - the effect of changing the force on an object of constant mass and the effect of changing the mass of an object when constant force is applied.

6.5.4.2.3

Newton's 3rd law

Whenever two objects interact, the forces they exert on each other are equal and opposite. Equilibrium examples

6.5.4.3.1

Stopping distance

stopping distance = thinking distance + braking distance. The faster the object, the longer the stopping distance ( if the braking force is constant). Separate physics - estimate the stopping distance of vehicles for different speeds - learn them!

6.5.4.3.2

Reaction time

Typical reaction time is between 0.2-0.9 seconds, factors affecting reaction time - distraction, drugs, tiredness. How to measure reaction time.

6.5.4.3.3

Factors affecting braking distance 1

weather, car ( brakes, tyres) & road conditions

6.5.4.3.4

Factors affecting braking distance 2

higher speed with equal braking forces = longer stopping distance. Higher braking force lowers stopping distance. When a force is applied by brakes, work is done against the friction force and energy is transferred as heat. Brakes can over heat and cars can lose control. Explain the dangers of large decelerations

6.5.5.1

Momentum is a property of moving objects (HT only)

momentum = mass x velocity, p=mv
