 * Term 1[[image:geojis-yr12-coasts/happy world.jpg align="right"]] **
 * Welcome to the JIS Geography team ** ... Please complete our brief questionnaire to help us get to know you better.

**Week 2**

Tasks to complete:
 * 1**. Multiple coastlines (the 5 different locations) and have a look at Muara and Singapore - complete for ** Thursday 5th Sept **


 * 2.** Research the coastal zone using the WS from the lessons - ** you must know the different features and how they are formed! **- ** complete for Mon 9th Sept **


 * Week 3 **

1. Look at the photo's below (copy them and paste them onto a word document) and identify any coastal processes that are occurring (you will require to do some research of the different coastal process).

Picture A Picture B

Picture C Picture D

Picture E

2. Think back to the lessons this week and identify any factors that affect the shape of the coastline (high light evidence from the photos to explain your ideas i.e. coastal features) and annotate your pictures (use a different colour) - ** complete for Wed 11th Sept **

=**ICT Lesson**=

//** North Sea Storm Surge **//
Below are some sheets you may choose to use.



You are to investigate the 1953 North Sea Storm Surge and produce a ** FACT SHEET ** which should include the following:


 * information on how tides form (including diagrams)
 * info on what a storm surge is
 * case study on the causes (physical, human), effects (social, economic, political and environmental) and responses (long term, short term)

I have also attached some videos to help your research:

 * Week 4 **


 * Candidasa Investigation **** (weekend H/W) - f **** or Tuesday period 3 17th Sept **

**Your GSI task is to investigate the condition of Candidasa's beach.**

a) Use the following resources to help you gather evidence


 * Watch this holiday video made by a visitor to Candidasa
 * [[image:geojis-yr12-coasts/GSI detective.jpg align="right" caption="GSI detective.jpg"]]Read the comment below (if you can't see the comment reload the pag
 * Read this tourist blog
 * Read the TravelFish article
 * Read this [|Jakarta Post]

b) Write a brief report on Candidasa's beach which includes


 * A map showing the location of Candidasa
 * A labelled photo of the town's beach, highlighting the attractiveness (or otherwise) of this beach to tourists
 * An explanation about why the beach is like this
 * A conclusion about the impact human actions have had on the town's potential for making money from tourism

// (If you want to discuss this task with me..you can arrange to meet me) //

=//** URGENT MESSAGE!!!! PLEASE READ!!!!! **//=

//** Due to all the holidays and the fact that I'm on a course on the 26th Sept I will not be seeing you till Monday 30th period 6. I then do away on the yr 13 fieldtrip so will not see you on Thursday 3rd Oct til after half term. **//

//** I HAVE BOOKED RS1 FOR BOTH THURSDAY'S LESSONS SO GO STRAIGHT THERE AND CONTINUE THE WORK FORM THE WIKI! **//


 * 1) Apologies for not going through your Candidasa work. We will do this next lesson (Monday 30th Sept)
 * 2) Tuesday period 4 we will go through week 5 task 1 - sediment cells
 * 3) After half term we will go though the how geology effects coastal erosion (week 6 work) and the Holbeck Hall case study


 * Make sure these pieces of work are all ready to go! **


 * Week 5 **

Task 1

Sediment Cells
Use the WS and map from the powerpoint to explain sediment cells as a System (what is a system i.e. characteristics, inputs, outputs etc).

Research why the UK has divided its coastline into cells and think about the system in each cell (are they closed or open). How do we affect sediment cells i.e. interfere with the system.



Task 2

Field sketches
1. a) Read the section on using fieldsketches and photographs in your textbook (pages 312 & 313)

b) Read Creating a Fieldsketch c) Imagine you were actually sitting at the spot where the following photo of  was taken.

Draw a field sketch of the view shown in this photo, labeling as many geographical features & processes as possible.


 * 2. The collapse of Holbeck Hall, Scarborough, 1993 **

a) Read page 86 in your textbook, revisit [|cliff failure] and look at the following photos of the event:





b) Write a heading 'The Collapse of Holbeck Hall Hotel, Scarborough, 1993'

and describe the location of the hotel before the collapse.

c) The following all had a role to play in this spectacular event:-

Rock type

Erosion

Weathering

Mass movement

Explain how these factors interacted to result in the final collapse.

// You can use labelled photo/sketch to help you with this task //

d) The hotel owners took the local council to court blaming them for not doing enough to prevent the collapse and demanding financial compensation for the damage caused.

(i) What could the council have done to try and protect the hotel?

(ii) Do you think that the council should have spent huge amounts of money trying to prevent this disaster from happening? Justify your answer.

e) "Would you feel happy to stay in a hotel located near a cliff top?" Explain your answer


 * Week 6 - Half Term Work - Geology of the Coastline **

Denudation Processes
media type="custom" key="23967604" align="left"


 * Coastal Erosion **

1. a) Watch: Coastal erosion(for fun!) then see Erosion of a cliff animation b) Look at the  and the  ( // You may want to print these out // ) c) Now watch: Erosion of a cliff reality

2. a) Ensure you have completed the weathering sheet // (gap task given out in class) //
 * Sub-Arial Processes (Weathering and mass movement) **

b) Complete the worksheet on 'How does the sea shape the land ',adding detailed annotations to the diagrams to help you to answer the questions.

3. a) Watch : ** [|Three main rocks and the rock cycle] **

b) Look at the pictures of cliffs in different parts of the UK on the Cliff Profiles page of this wiki.


 * Which cliffs are made of the softest rock?
 * Which cliff profiles are controlled by the joint pattern (explain what a joint is and which rocks have joints and why?)
 * Which place shows cliff profiles controlled by the angle of the bedding planes (explain what a bedding plane is and how it effects coastal erosion)
 * Which photo shows slumping (what is slumping?)

Task 2
You can use ther following ppt and worksheets to help your understanding




 * Erosion of a Headland **

1. a) Watch: Erosion of a headland

b) The following task involves the black & white diagrams (erosional landform sequence) showing features resulting from the erosion of a headland


 * Cut & paste these diagrams down the left hand side of a piece of A4 paper **in the correct sequence (order)**
 * Label the features shown and on the right hand side of each diagram (//add colour if you feel this helps//)
 * Explain what is happening & why. //(Use as much geographical terminology as possible).//



c). Find some photographs which show landforms which result from the erosion of a headland (Caves, arches, stacks, stumps)


 * Write down the location of each photo
 * Label the landforms shown


 * Work to be handed in on Monday 21st Oct '13 - first lesson back **


 * Week 10 - ** to be completed for Monday 11th Nov period 5

You are to use your textbooks and the internet to fill in the worksheet on sand dunes. You should include the following for each stage:


 * abiotic conditions (no living conditions e.g. dry etc)
 * plants that colonise this stage and how have they adapted to their living conditions (what makes them special)
 * humus - what is it, how is it formed and how does it change through each stage
 * how does the colour of the dunes change?
 * names of each stage
 * info about blowouts
 * info about how dunes are protected




 * Term 2 **

Week 1
a) Look through Uk Sorms January 2014 b) Choose examples of Coastal Flooding (salt water from the sea) & River Flooding (fresh water from rainfall) and make summary notes (with photos) of the causes and consequences of each example.
