Fieldsketching
Fieldsketching
• Get students to redraw the fieldsketch
• Draw the fieldsketch on the OHP to guide them
• Use the 9 part grid as a guide
• Colour and title the sketch
• Annotate the sketch
• Ask students questions on the sketch to help them draw conclusions

Constructing Beach Profile
• Use graph paper• Copy graph paper onto acetate for use on OHP• Add up the length of each section of slope• Decide on a scale which will fit the profile onto
one sheet of graph paper• Begin by drawing the sea• Use a protractor to get the slope angles• Draw the angles in pencil• Colour the profile

Beach Fabric Analysis
• Using the material size from the recording sheet calculate the average size at each of the three sites
Total of long axes ÷ 12
• Draw scaled diagrams of the average size onto graph paper

Evaluation
• Evaluate the planning, fieldwork and processing phases of the investigation
• Evaluation can be stimulated through a questioning approach e.g.
What did you do well?
What did you feel needed to be improved?
What questions were raised by your investigation?
