Description

It’s Geography! This course is all about the environment and people and understanding how nature and people interact. 

In term two, we will look at environments and how they are made and how we can use data to better understand them. This may include things like:

  • Mountains - Why are they there?
  • Beaches - How does a Coastal system work?
  • Rivers - How does the Otakaro/Avon River change
  • What ever aspect of an environment we want to explore really

In particular, we will look at what data we can find or gather from an environment and how we can use this to better understand that aspect of te taiao.

In term two there will be a 5 Credit internal assessment (91933)

Throughout the year, this course will offer 15-20 Level One NCEA credits.
