Year 10 coasts…
We started today with the movie of cliff retreat at Bawdsey. Using the IWB, we did a prediction exercise, students marked where they thought the final position of the cliff would would be – they then justified their answers using their previous knowledge about coastal erosion. I think they were somewhat shocked.
We then went onto to discuss the factors that influenced cliff retreat.
At half time, we did a Content Generator match-up activity related to erosion and weathering terminology.
We started the second lesson with some coastal bingo, then went on the consider different types of mass movement.
Finally, we finished with a coastal penalty shoot-out. Well, they can’t say I don’t put the effort in.
I’ve now updated these resources to R.G. .
