  1. Teach me, Tell Me How are coasts shaped by physical processes? You have been given a key word with a definition on it. You must quiz one person to define the key term. Congratulate them on a correct definition or correct their response. You are then quizzed by them in the same way. Swap cards Move on to a new person and repeat the process VERY QUICKLY YOU WILL KNOW ALL THE PROCESSES!!

  2. What is swash? What is backwash Which of diagram below is a destructive wave? What do we call the other type of wave? What is happening on the destructive piece of coastline? What is happening on the constructive piece of coastline?

  3. The impact of geology on coastlines Rock type and structure can have a significant impact on coastal landforms. More resistant rocks such as chalk and limestone are eroded more slowly. Weaker rocks such as clays and sands are frequently weakened by heavy rainfall and marine erosion. The effect geology can have on coastal landforms can be seen on the Dorset coast. Make the shape of this coastline out of Playdough.

  4. What type of coastline is this? Discordant What type of coastline is this? Concordant

  5. Features on a Discordant coastline – Dorset Erode soft rock away You have made 2 bays (Studland and Swanage) The hard rock left is called a headland (Ballard Point) Destructive ways start to attack headlines on both sides A crack is widened by hydraulic action and abrasion Continued erosion turns a notch into a sea cave Continued erosion of sea caves on either side of the headland forms an arch Due to weathering and instability the arch collapses and leaves a stack Continued erosion of the stack leaves a stump. You have just made Old Harry Rocks http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RTyOTaOsp_U

  6. Depositional features Why do we get the formation of spits? What is it called if a spit joins the mainland to an island e.g. Chesil Beach Dorset to the Isle of Portland?

  7. Conveyor Learning Physical reasons the coastline needs to be protected Human reasons the coastline needs to be protected Hard engineering methods Soft engineering methods

  8. With the use of example explain why an area of coastline needs to be protected and the methods that are being used to protect it. (8) Using a named example explain how coastal management has had an impact and the conflict it has caused. (8)
