What we are learning this term
Spring: COASTLINE
Let's take a trip to explore the coastline of the UK. In this Topic we will investigate the physical and human geographical features of the coastline, looking in particular at the Jurassic Coast and comparing Exmouth to Whitby, Yorkshire. We will build Victorian beach huts and investigate light and lighthouses too!
