Description:
Future Floods will help you plan a unit of work using strategies which will challenge learners and help them make progress. It focuses on a fieldwork experience on flooding in York: preparation for the trip, activities carried out during the fieldwork, and follow-up. The photos on the CD enable you to use York flooding as a case study, or you could apply the strategies to a local case study or hazard.
