Teachers Information
Written as a precursor to the Coastal Studies unit. We wanted to trial activities with local schools to see if they worked.
The purpose was to get students thinking about their local beach, where the sand comes from, where it goes and if its loss is any problem to the community.
As well there was need to trial activities that would work in primary and secondary classrooms.
