<div style="background: white;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">We live
in a spiral galaxy called the milky way. In the galaxy we are one tiny
spec. In our solar system there are 8 (9 if you include Pluto) planets. We
are the 3<sup>rd</sup> from the sun meaning we have the perfect conditions for
life.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div style="background: white;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">The
names of the planets (and their conditions) are:<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background: white;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><b>Mercury</b><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>is the
closest planet to the Sun. It orbits the Sun quickly, once every 88 days.
Mercury is small, Because Mercury is so close to the Sun meaning it is very
hot. The surface of Mercury is gray to orange in color, and is covered with craters.
<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background: white;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><b>Venus</b>, the second planet away from the Sun, is Earth’s closest
neighbor. It is about the same size as the Earth. We could not breathe on
Venus, because the atmosphere would be very toxic to humans. This atmosphere
gives Venus a brownish-yellow color. It also traps heat (making the surface of
Venus the hottest in the Solar System. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background: white;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><b>Earth</b><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>is a
little more than 12,000 kilometers in diameter. It differs from the other
planets because it has liquid water on its surface, maintains life, and has
active plate movement. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background: white;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><b>Mars</b><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>is a
little more than half the size of the Earth. Mars has a very thin
atmosphere which is composed largely of CO<sub>2</sub>. Its surface is very
cold, and is covered with craters, volcanoes, and large canyons. Mars is
reddish in color. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background: white;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><b>Jupiter</b><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>is the
largest planet in the Solar System. Its surface is made up of gas (mostly
hydrogen), so that if you landed on the surface you would sink into it. Jupiter
probably has a core of metallic hydrogen and rock. The outer gas part of
Jupiter is broken into bands of white, yellow, red, and brown clouds. Jupiter
has 4 rings mainly composed of dust. Huge oval-shaped storms also occur on the
surface. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background: white;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><b>Saturn</b><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>is well
known for its system of three rings. It is a large planet. Like Jupiter, Saturn
is composed of mostly gas, and has a core composed of rock and metallic
hydrogen. The surface of Saturn looks banded, and has a brown-yellow color.
Saturn’s rings are probably composed of small particles of ice and rock.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background: white;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><b>Uranus</b><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>is about
4.4 times the size of the Earth. It is covered by a thick layer of gas, and has
a fairly uniform blue-green color. Uranus is surrounded by a system of
nine rings.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="background: white;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><b>Neptune</b><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>is
slightly smaller than Uranus. Its atmosphere appears blue , and is marked by
large dark blue storm systems. It is surrounded by a system of five rings.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<br />
<div style="background: white;">
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>Pluto</b><span class="apple-converted-space"> </span>in 2006
was renamed as a dwarf planet. Pluto is probably composed of rock. Its surface
and color are unknown.</span><o:p></o:p></span></div>

are evolving and quickly, but we should try to remember that although it is
good to evolve, there are also many doubts about such futuristic technology.

<span style="line-height: 115%;"><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">If
you are ever in Manchester you will find yourself with a great opportunity to
visit the Museum of Science and Industry. Currently, they are showing how food
controls your brain, body and eating habits. This is a great exhibition if visiting
with children.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

Nutritionists emphasize the importance of <b><span style="color: #674ea7;">healthy eating </span></b>habits at this stressful time. They say the right food and drink can energize your system, improve your alertness and sustain you through the long exam hours. The wrong dietary choices can make you feel sluggish, jittery, or burned out. <span style="color: #351c75;">What you eat before your exams could affect your final grade!</span> Lots of chocolate, crisps and energy drinks are often eaten in place of normal meals to “keep energy levels up”. However, this is not only harmful to your long-term health, but can negatively affect your exam performance.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">The better the fuel your brain gets, the better you’ll study. It’s a…well…no-brainer.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><b>So, what should I be eating if possible?</b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Oily fish like salmon, sardines and mackerel contain lots of protein and omega 3, which is essential to keep a functioning brain working well. Eggs for breakfast – these contain antioxidants and protein – boiled, poached or sunny side up. Vegetables and fruit. The natural sugars in fruit offer clean energy, so you don’t experience the crash that follows consumption of refined sugar, banana’s would be a good choice. Not all vegetables are created equal. For example, spinach has more to offer the mind and body than iceberg lettuce. Other great vegetable choices include bell peppers, broccoli and sweet potatoes, these give you much needed minerals and vitamins and also help relieve, shall I say, number 2 problems – maybe caused by eating too many eggs! Peanut butter – honest! I know it contains fats but it also contains proteins. A little will keep you full for a long time.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Stay well hydrated and choose your beverages well, though caffeine and sugar should be kept to a minimum since too much caffeine can make you jittery, try to drink moderate amounts. Better choices include water, fruit juice, milk, and anti-oxidant-rich green tea. It's a good idea to start the day with a big glass of water or a hot drink such as fruit tea. The European Food Safety Authority recommends women drink about 1.6 litres of fluid a day and men 2 litres, that's eight to ten 200ml glasses. Water is ideal, but healthy drinks such as milk or fruit juice count, tea and coffee count too, but are high in caffeine.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">It's best to avoid fizzy and energy drinks, which are high in sugar, as they'll lead to energy peaks and troughs. Take a bottle of water into the exam, but take the label off. A study of university students found that those who brought drinks, especially water, with them into the exam performed on average 5% better than those who didn't.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><b><u>What's the best breakfast on exam days?</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Research shows that those who eat breakfast tend to perform better in exams. For the best </span><span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">breakfast, include slow-release carbohydrates, such as whole rolled porridge oats, whole grain toast with jam or low-sugar muesli, as they provide slow-release energy. Add a protein food, such as milk, yoghurt or eggs, to keep you feeling full for longer. On exam day aim to include a portion of a food rich in long-chain Omega-3 fats, such as smoked mackerel, as they are believed to have brain-boosting properties. A bowl of whole-grain cereal with low-fat milk and a piece of fruit would do the trick. Even if you normally skip breakfast or avoid eating when you are nervous, you should still make the time to eat something. Very simply, your brain needs the energy from food to work efficiently. You need to keep your mental focus on your exam and not on your hunger. It would be a shame to study intensively before your exam and then be too fatigued physically to do your best on exam day.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">If you really cannot stomach food, then try having a protein shake or smoothie.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Try to give up crisps as these will fill you up quickly but are relatively low in fibre so you’ll soon feel hungry again. Popcorn is higher in fibre, so it releases its energy slowly, and is lower in calories than crisps, leaving you room for more nutrient-rich foods.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><b><u>What should you eat before bedtime?</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">A heavy meal too close to bedtime can interfere with sleep, so try to have your last meal at least three hours before you go to bed. Then have a small snack such as a bowl of high-fibre cereal like porridge just before bedtime. If you need sweetener with cereal, go for dried fruit rather than sugar.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><b><u><br /></u></b></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><b><u>What should you drink at bedtime?</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Avoid foods and drinks that contain caffeine, such as tea, coffee, cola and chocolate, for least four hours before going to bed. Be aware that some people who are very sensitive to caffeine can still feel the effect 12 hours later. A warm glass of milk can help you sleep better.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><b><u><br /></u></b></span>
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><b><u>What not to eat on exam day?</u></b></span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Stay away from foods made of white flour, such as cookies, cakes, and muffins, which require added time and energy to digest. Also avoid foods that are high in refined sugar, such as chocolates, desserts, and candies. Do not have turkey before an exam as it contains L-tryptophan, an essential amino acid which makes you feel sleepy. Save this for after your exams when you can relax.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Good luck!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;">Here are some useful tips on remembering all those
useful facts for your exams:</span></div>
<div style="background: white;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background: white;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><u>Sticky Notes</u> - Write some key terms to remember on sticky notes. Place
these sticky notes in places where you know you will have to visit regularly
such as: a wardrobe, a light switch or even just a door. This way when you
see the question on an exam you can easily visualise the answer!<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background: white;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><u>Study smarter not harder</u>: The brain understands information better in small shorter
sessions than one very long one. For example it's more effective to study for
30 minutes in 20 sessions over a period of time than to study for 10 hours in
one day without a break.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background: white;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><u>A key for keywords</u>: If you think of yourself as more of a visual learner, then
adding a little picture can help you remember. Create your own key of drawings
for example the rock cycle. With igneous rock you could draw a little volcano
next to it so that you remember it's formed when magma or lava cool and
solidify. Or with sedimentary rock you could draw a wave (ocean) because
these rocks are formed by weathering or erosion.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background: white;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><u>Past Papers</u>: Firstly try to complete a past paper with the usual
conditions (a time limit , <u>NO</u> internet etc.). After doing so look at the
mark scheme. Once you have checked how many marks you have gotten then you can
print out the mark scheme and highlight it. A mark scheme shows you how to
structure an answer to get the highest amount of points so by highlighting it
you see the area/s of your answers that need the most improvement.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div style="background: white;">
<br /></div>
<div style="background: white;">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: large;"><u>Avoiding Distractions</u>: If you easily get distracted by other websites (Instagram
,Youtube etc) when revising, then apps and programmes such as <a disabled="true" href="https://getcoldturkey.com/" id="LPlnk19642">https://getcoldturkey.com/</a> (pc)
and forest <a disabled="true" href="http://www.forestapp.cc/" id="LPlnk169609">http://www.forestapp.cc/</a> can help. Get cold turkey lets
you block specific websites or even the whole internet when you are revising
and during revision time it's almost impossible to cancel until the time is up.
Forest is a timer, when you start it a tree starts to grow but if you leave the
app at any time then the tree will die! (unless you allow specific apps to be
viewed). <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="text-indent: -18pt;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">On Wednesday, two Y7 top set Science groups took part in
the Tomorrow’s Engineers Energiser Event which has been designed to encourage
the next generation of scientists and engineers. Our students had a chance to work with an
engineer, Mr Nigel Moore, and learn about his job. The pupils looked at the
following areas: </span></span></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="text-indent: -18pt;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">- Our World, Your Future – the effects of a
growing world population;</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpMiddle" style="text-indent: -18pt;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">- Potential Energy – the global energy mix
including renewable and non-renewable energy;</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpLast" style="text-indent: -18pt;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">- Kinetic Energy – building and testing a Solar
Car;</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoListParagraphCxSpLast" style="text-indent: -18pt;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">- Engineering Careers – looking at what engineers
do and the routes into engineering careers.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">The scientists at The Smarties Science Club are preparing to become

<div style="margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin: 0cm;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">In September 2015, 2kg of rocket seeds were flown to the International
Space Station (ISS) on Soyuz 44S where they will spend several months in
microgravity before returning to Earth in March 2016. The seeds have been sent
as part of Rocket Science, an educational project launched by the RHS Campaign
for School Gardening and the UK Space Agency. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">JRCS will be one of up to 10,000 schools to receive a packet of 100
seeds from space, which they will grow alongside seeds that haven’t been to
space and measure the differences over seven weeks. The pupils won’t know which
seed packet contains which seeds until all results have been collected by the
RHS Campaign for School Gardening and analysed by professional
biostatisticians. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: large;">The out-of-this-world, nationwide science experiment will enable the students
to think more about how we could preserve human life on another planet in the
future, what astronauts need to survive long-term missions in space and the
difficulties surrounding growing fresh food in challenging climates.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
