Start 'Coasts' (without me)

This is the first part of the specification:

Constructive and destructive waves. Processes of erosion (hydraulic power, corrosion, corrasion; attrition; transport (traction, saltation, suspension, solution, longshore drift) and deposition. Landforms and characteristic features and formation of wave cut platforms, cliffs, caves, arches,
stacks, beaches, spits in the context of an example of an erosional coastline and a depositional coastline.

MOST of this should be familier from work in Year 8

Use your text book to complete notes on Constructive & Destructive Waves & the processes of erosion. Use text book and/or http://www.s-cool.co.uk/ and/or this website. Record your notes into your exercise books. Include diagrams!!!!

HOMEWORK: Listen to the podcast on this site if you haven't been able to do so in class. Do podcasts help you learn? Could you record your own? Great for audio/kinesthetic learners.
I took this photo last summer in the Scottish Hebrides!
