the role play is concluded by a written answer to the hypothesis: "Climate change will be bad for the United Kingdom".

Discussions to analyse a variety of linked physical maps. Mapwork to colour areas of granite and chalk, then to add the Tees-Exe Line (including the pattern of the age of rocks from the Grampians to the South Coast).
