The Landscape Design Studio

What you'll make

Layered card cross-sections, a change-over-time storyboard and a field-guide explanation.

What you'll learn

• Glacial erosion (plucking, abrasion) and landforms: corries, arêtes, U-shaped valleys
• Coastal erosion, transport (longshore drift) and deposition
• Reading maps and images as evidence

You'll need

Card, scissors, colours · No cliff or beach visit needed

Glaciation and coasts are two separate strands. Each is recorded on its own, so finishing one doesn't mark the other complete.

Curriculum links

• Understand rivers, coasts and glaciation and the physical processes that give rise to landscapes, and how they change over time
• Understand how geographical processes interact to create distinctive human and physical landscapes that change over time
• Interpret Ordnance Survey maps, including using grid references, scale, topographical and other thematic mapping, and aerial and satellite photographs
