HOW DO COASTAL LANDFORMS AFFECT THE

LIFE'S OF PEOPLE?GCSE – OPTION PAPER - COASTS

LESSON OBJECTIVES

CONTENT• IDENTIFY VARIOUS WAYS IN WHICH

COASTAL LANDFORMS AND PROCESSES CAN AFFECT HUMANS BOTH POSITIVELY AND NEGATIVELY.

• EXAMINE THE EFFECTS OF COASTAL EROSION ALONG THE HOLDERNESS COAST.

SKILLS• LITERACY

• MAKE NOTES FROM A SERIES OF VIDEOS ON THE EFFECT OF COASTAL EROSION ON THE HOLDERNESS COAST.

• ANNOTATE A SKETCH MAP TO EXPLAIN HOW COASTAL LANDFORMS AFFECT PEOPLE.

• DRAW A SKETCH MAP USING A VARIETY OF MAPS.

TASK

• CREATE AN ANNOTATED MAP OF THE HOLDERNESS COASTLINE TO EXPLAIN HOW COASTAL LANDFORMS AND PROCESSES AFFECT THE LIFE'S OF PEOPLE.

• YOUR MAP MUST BE HAND DRAWN.

• YOU WILL NEED TO NAME THE LANDFORM/PROCESS AND THEN EXPLAIN HOW IT AFFECTS THE LIFE’S OF PEOPLE.

Holderness Coast - How do coastal landforms affect the life's of people?Flamborough Head protects coastline around Bridlington from the NE wind therefore reducing coastal erosion. This has enabled the town to develop a tourism industry worth £146 million.

Introduction

THE INTRODUCTION

• USING YOUR SPIDER DIAGRAM, CREATE AN INTRODUCTION TO THE CASE STUDY.

• YOU WILL NEED TO INCLUDE:

• WHAT IS TAKING PLACE?

• WHERE IS IT?

• HOW QUICKLY IS THE COASTLINE ERODING?

• WHAT ARE THE OPPORTUNITIES AND CONSTRAINTS THIS CAUSES?

THE MAPCreate a map to show the key features of the Holderness Coast. You will need to include:- Main settlement.- Physical features e.g.

Flamborough Head and Spurn Head.

- The geology of the area.- The direction of the wind

and longshore drift. - The location of the old

coastline.

ANNOTATION

• ANNOTATE YOUR MAPS TO SHOW HOW THE PHYSICAL LANDFORMS OR PROCESSES HAVE AFFECTED HUMAN ACTIVITY IN THE AREA.

• ON THE MINI WHITEBOARDS BRAINSTORM SOME OF THE WAYS COASTAL LANDFORMS HAVE COULD HAVE AFFECTED HUMANS IN THE AREA.

ANNOTATION

• TRICK TO ANNOTATION IS….

Name…then explain.

• FLAMBOROUGH HEAD PROTECTS THE COASTLINE AROUND BRIDLINGTON FROM THE NORTH EASTERLY WINDS, THEREFORE, REDUCING COASTAL EROSION. THIS HAS ENABLED THE TOWN TO DEVELOP A TOURISM INDUSTRY WORTH £146 MILLION.
