The 'Erosion Discussion Cards' have been designed to work in a think-pair-share scenario or whole class discussion. They can be used to assess student understanding of erosion and would work as a pre-test before embarking on studies of erosion. Complete your studies by asking students to repeat the tasks to see what they've learned.
