Part 3 — Estuary Landforms and Features Scavenger HuntView the Estuary Landforms and Features PowerPoint presentation and take notes about the various structures andfeatures.Using Google Earth, explore regions of coastline and find as many landforms and features as you can on theStudent Worksheet — Scavenger Hunt.Your teacher may start you in a particular coastal region. You may then “fly” to other coastal areas and search formissing landforms and features if time allows.Exchange your list with another team and check that team’s results by flying to each location they recorded toverify whether the landforms and features have been correctly identified.3a. Which landforms and features were easiest to find?3b. Which landforms and features were the most difficult to find?Earth Science Module—Activity 18
