Hydrographs Scenario Worksheet

I created this comprehensive resource after finding my students struggled to understand how human and physical factors influenced the shape of hydrographs which is likely to be a popular question in the new GCSEs owing to its ‘trickiness’. The sheet encourages students to sketch sets of hydrographs after changing one human or physical aspect of the drainage basin. It then poses a scenario which students have to analyse and make recommendations upon. The worksheet then concludes with an exam question focusing on the influence of human and physical on drainage basins. Children and colleagues really valued this resource as it gave them an opportunity to increase student confidence and exposure to a range of different questions in this area.
