A great introduction to the Rivers topic. The first half of the powerpoint looks at key features such as meanders, rapids, deltas etc. The activity related to this is a matching activity that is differentiated 3 ways. Lower ability children have to simply match the picture to the definition. Middle ability children have to match the picture to the definition and fill in the missing feature. Higher ability children have to match the feature to the picture and write their own definition. The second half of the powerpoint looks at key vocabulary for the topic such as erosion. This could be used to create a glossary using the resources provided. Please note I do not own any of the images used in these resources.
