GRANITE LANDFORMS OF EYRE PENINSULA SOUTH AUTRALIA

This unit was developed for students studying landforms (geomorphology) in middle to upper secondary levels. It fits into topics dealing with mountains and landscapes. The diagrams and descriptions allow students to recognise the significance of granite in forming features ranging from the large scale inselbergs to smaller features in the landscape. Find out how the processes of weathering, erosion and deposition shape the landscape over time. Meet Farmer Murphy, the owner of a farm where granite features exist. The attachment page is designed for screen projection and can be used as an in-class activity or as a download activity for individual student use. Those students with a particular interest in landscape geography (geomorphology) will be particularly interested in this material.
