What do different coastal features look like? How might coastal features change over time? Why might coastal features change over time? Starter: Students are shown a number of images of different coasts. Working in pairs they devise a definition to answer the questions What is a coast? Students feedback their definitions and as a class identify common ideas to create a class definition. Main: Students are then given a blank world map and a sheet with photographs of different coastal features (NB this sheet should be stuck into students’ exercise books as they will also need to refer to it in lesson 2). From a list they have to name the different features. Once features are named from a list on the board, students use atlases to locate these features on their maps. On the maps they then draw a diagram of each feature next to the labeled country. Plenary: Students are asked to choose a coastal feature and think about how that feature might change over time and why those changes might occur? Peers are asked if they agree or disagree and must justify their answers. Downloads: Coastal features PDF | MSWORD What is a coast?
