| PE9525 (Sci) | Participating and contributing | 3 | lcr | | Students are provided with a situation where the bank on the school field is eroding. They are asked to write a plan for a tree-planting programme that would help to slow down the erosion. | | | Keywords (Earth systems; environment; erosion; trees; tree planting;) | | | Publication date (18/08/2000) |
| |
| PE9517 (Sci) | Knowledge | 4 | bcr | | Task: Describe problems caused by cutting down trees on a bank. Assessment focus: Erosion. | | | Keywords (Earth systems; environment; trees; erosion;) | | | Publication date (09/12/1998) |
| |
| PE9510 (Sci) | Participating and contributing | 5 | bcr | | Students suggest ways to stop sand dunes blowing on to farmland, and describe the predicted outcome of their suggestions. They are assessed on their ability to apply their knowledge of erosion to a specific situation. | | | Keywords (Earth systems; erosion;) | | | Publication date (29/07/1998) |
| |
| PE9503 (Sci) | Knowledge | 4 | bcr | | Students suggest ways to prevent a steep bank slipping. The assessment focus is application of their knowledge about erosion. | | | Keywords (Earth systems; erosion;) | | | Publication date (26/01/1998) |
| |
| PE8523 (Sci) | Knowledge | 5 | bcr | | Students are provided with a sequence of diagrams showing the erosion of a waterfall by a river over time. Students complete diagrams for two other waterfall erosion sequences. Each waterfall has different combinations of layers of soft and hard rocks. | | | Keywords (Earth systems; erosion; rivers; water; sequencing;) | | | Publication date (22/11/2000) |
| |
| PE8519 (Sci) | Communicating in science | 5 | bcr | | Students are provided with a diagram showing layers of rock and three possible results of changes that could occur. Words and phrases are provided to help students answer several short answer questions about the possible cause of the changes. | | | Keywords (Earth systems; landforms; erosion; tilting; faulting; sedimentation; interpreting diagrams;) | | | Publication date (22/09/1998) |
| |
| PE8502 (Sci) | Knowledge | 5 | bcr | | Students are asked to explain how a stone from the top of a mountain could become sand on a beach. Students then identify the most likely way stones 'move' from the tops of mountains to the coast. | | | Keywords (Earth systems; weathering; erosion;) | | | Publication date (17/09/1997) |
| |
| PE8036 (Sci) | Investigating in science | 3 | Prac | | This practical task assesses students' ability to design and carry out a fair test on the relationship between slope and rates of erosion. | | | Keywords (Earth systems; water; erosion; rivers; slope;) | | | Publication date (08/04/2002) |
| |
| PE8028 (Sci) | Knowledge | 3 | bcr | | For this task students are provided with a diagram of a landslip and an example of a possible cause of this. Students are required to list four other possible causes of landslips. | | | Keywords (Earth systems; erosion; landslips;) | | | Publication date (03/04/2001) |
| |
| PE8026 (Sci) | Investigating in science | 3 | Prac / lcr | | Student view an online animation of cliff erosion and then write a description of what they observe about this process. | | | Keywords (Earth systems; landforms; erosion; cliffs; observations; animation;) | | | Publication date (22/02/2001) |
