Spelling

Geography

Week 3: Erosion and Deposition in Rivers

Why don’t rivers travel in straight lines? 

This week we would like you to look carefully at the river system where it changes shape.  Rivers can erode land by the water washing away soil and rocks as well as dropping the soil and rocks in slower river places.

These processes are called erosion and deposition.

Another way rivers change shape is through erosion and deposition – do you know what these words mean?

You can also look for special vocabulary words like meanders, waterfalls and oxbow lakes.
 

Take a look at the presentation on UK rivers (Same document as a PDF and Power point - you choose which one to view)

Your task is to work out where the area of land in which the river erodes and deposits, and add the information to the map. Only do one of the sheets and choose which difficulty (shown by the 1, 2 or 3 stars - 3 being the hardest)

Science

This week I'd like you have a go at 2 experiments involving how light travels through different transparent materials - an effect called REFRACTION.

In these experiment you will need to follow some science investigation methods.

• make a prediction first,
• then describe your  observations
• and make a conclusion using the activity sheet. 

Look through the Powerpoint information (identical PDF available if you can't use ppt) and find out about refraction.  The video you are asked to watch is posted below as a link too.

Amazing Arrow: The first investigation  draw a horizontal arrow on a small piece of paper, and hold it behind a glass of water. Make a prediction what will happen before carrying out the investigation and write down what you saw (observation) and what you think happened (conclusion)

Incredible Images: For the second investigation, draw a small picture (or stick a small sticker) on a piece of paper. Put a glass on top of the picture, then look at the picture through the side of the glass while slowly pouring water in. Once it is full, place a saucer on top.
