A River Meander Worksheet that helps pupils understand how river meanders are formed. The key terms covered include Erosion, Deposition, Slowest River Flow, Fastest River Flow, River Cliff, Slip Off Slope, and Thalweg.
The worksheet starts with a labelling activity on a cross section of a river and a overhead view of a meander. This is followed by a true or false activity where pupils have to consider whether the river would cause a number of different scenarios.
Pupils are then asked to consider what would cause the river to increase in sinuosity and jot these ideas down as a mind map.
Lastly the higher order thinking question asks pupils to think about the implications of rivers on cities such as London or Nottingham.
