You should use the free revision guide to help you complete this booklet and revise.
Note that not all of the answers will be in the revision guide. You may have to come up with an opinion or use your school exercise book.
Each key idea from the AQA Specification will have a key next to it
This section can all be found on pages 47 – 71.
NOTE – you do not need to revise river landscapes on pages 55 - 59

Beaches
Beaches are deposits of sand and shingle at the coast. Explain how both sandy and pebbly beaches form:
Sandy: _______________________________________________________________ __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Spits and Bars
Spits are long, narrow fingers of sand or shingle jutting out into the sea. A bar is a spit that has grown across a bay.
Draw an annotated diagram in the box below to explain the formation of spits and bars:
