Introduces concept of transportation and deposition in rivers using geographical vocab and engaging images. Planned for KS3 or lower ability KS4. Handouts are included if you decide to use them for lower ability students. 2 sugggested plenaries for you to choose from. The lesson is all about learning the vocab so have mini whiteboards at the ready. Repetition is important - you might have time to add an extra activity where the students write their own quiz based on the vocab they’ve learned or do this as a starter in the next lesson.
Objectives:
Define the terms transportation and deposition
Describe the 4 processes of transportation
Explain why deposition occurs
This revision worksheet covers beaches (constructive/destructive) and formation of sand dunes, spits and bars from the AQA geography specification Coastal Landscapes - landmarks from deposition.
2 versions are included for higher and lower ability. Alternatively, to improve recall students could be given the easier version to complete first and then a week later/next lesson could attempt the harder version.
Answers included.
This 13-question quiz tests knowledge and understanding for the whole of AQA Coastal Landscapes Unit. Questions cover the following:
weathering + erosion
sand dunes
bays
longshore drift
spits + bars
wave-cut platforms
constructive + destructive waves
caves, arches, stacks, stumps
hard+soft sea defences
Instructions inside the powerpoint:
You will be given 12 questions (one at a time) on pieces of paper that are shaped very differently.
You cannot receive the next question until your group has correctly answered the one you’ve just been given.
As you start answering more questions, you should be able to build up the jigsaw pieces that fit together in the shape of a A4 piece of paper.
When the jigsaw is complete, flip it over (you may need Sellotape for this bit) and complete the challenge task on the back
BIG PRIZES UP FOR GRABS!!
please note that when printing you will have to select the double-sided option.
This revision worksheet covers the following from the AQA geography specification Coastal Landscapes - coastal processes:
weathering
erosion
mass movement
There are 2 versions (for higher and lower ability) along with answers and quick quiz revision questions at the end.
Alternative use of resource - l students could be given the easier version to complete first and then a week later/next lesson could attempt the harder version.
2 worksheets that allow KS3 students to identify and rank the problems in shanty towns using a diamond 9 worksheet and then pick out what improvements they’d make using a budget and deciding what/where to spend it. They must already know what shanty towns are before doing these activities. Can be done as individual tasks or in groups for differentiation. Can be done in 1 lesson or over 2-3 if you want to include a presentation of what improvements each group has chosen. Great activities if your student like taking ownership of their work.
This bundle includes a range of classroom and revision activities that covers the entire AQA Coastal Landscapes Section.
Coastal processes - weathering, erosion, mass movement, longshore drift
Landmarks from deposition - beaches (wave type, constructive, destructive), sand dunes, spits, bars
Landmarks from erosion - headlands and bays, stack sequence, wave-cut platform
Sea Defences - hard and soft engineering schemes
EXTRA whole unit revision quiz
This revision activity covers the types of sea defences from the AQA geography specification Coastal Landscapes - management strategies. It revises: description of how defence reduces erosion, costs and benefits of each strategy.
Hard:
sea wall
groynes
gabions
rock armour
Soft:
dune regeneration
beach nourishment and reprofiling
2 activities are included (see descriptions below)
1. Defence Summary Steet
This activity is designed to help the students revise the material by continually summarising and condensing the material. In the next lesson practise recall by doing the activity in reverse.
Please note – this activity may require access to students’ exercise book, a text book, or access to the BBC bitesize website.
Alternatively, students can just use the attached pictures as a stimulus to test what they remember and self-assess where their weaknesses are.
2. Defence Questions
8 longer answer questions that students could complete as a homework or as a quick test in class after completing the summary sheet activity.
There is a blank worksheet where students can summarise a case study of a defence strategy used at a specific location and how successful it was.
This revision worksheet covers the formation of headlands and bays from the AQA geography specification Coastal Landscapes - landmarks from erosion.
worksheet includes:
complete the table to describe headlands and bays
gap fill
complete the diagram
2 versions are included for higher and lower ability. Alternatively, to improve recall students could be given the easier version to complete first and then a week later/next lesson could attempt the harder version.
Answers included.

3 versions are included for higher, middle and lower ability. Alternatively, to improve recall students could be given the easier version to complete first and then a week later/next lesson could attempt a harder version.
Answers included.
Worksheet includes a diagram which has to be labeled and then statements that have to be put in the correct order to describe its formation.

wave type
This is a memory-based activity inspired by the popular party game ‘Kim’s game’ to revise the differences between constructive and destructive waves. There are some suggestions of how to use this resource in the powerpoint but it is totally up to you how you use this resource.
