Last week our Geography class went on an expedition into the mountains of Shropshire, to visit Carding Mill Valley. It was a very sunny day and there were lots of tourists visiting the area, but we still managed to complete our work. On this trip we did not just have a fun time, but an educational time.
We went into the giant mountains and measured how the river changes from the upper to lower course. Whilst enjoying fun facts from our guide, Fiona. We surprised our guide, with our in-depth knowledge of Rivers. This trip also allowed us to see landforms that we had learnt about in the classroom such as interlocking spurs.
This trip combined human and physical Geography. We learnt about the buildings from the industrial era and ancient history from the geology. The rocks were formed 300 million years ago (they were formed before the dinosaurs existed).
