This resource covers the four erosion types, as well as activities for the formation of coastal erosional landforms. The double lesson then moves on to evaluating the effectiveness of hard engineering strategies.
A lesson created for KS3 middle ability class which can easily be adapted to KS4 Geography. Examines the different landforms that form from coastal deposition including: beaches, spits, bars and tombolos. Includes a recap starter on constructive, destructive waves and on some of the coastal erosion landforms.

Lesson designed to follow on from layers of a tropical rainforest. This lesson enforces group work to gather all appropriate information in relation to the distribution and location of tropical rainforests, the climate and temperature of this biome by asking pupils to construct a climate graph, as well as the characteristics of the plants and soils of the rainforest. The lesson concludes with a 6 mark GCSE question with a mark scheme to accompany it.
Lesson covers the 4 erosional processes: abrasion, attrition, hydraulic impact and solution. The 4 methods of transport are also covered including traction, suspension, saltation and solution
Introducing GCSE pupils to the Hjulstrom Curve to aid their understanding for when sediment is eroded, transported and deposited. Can be adapted for A-level.
A lesson about the Typhoon Haiyan 2013 case study. Pupils will plot the track of the tropical storm whilst highlighting the countries affected. The lesson also focuses on retrieving key information and using dual processing to help the effects stick in the pupil’s mind.
