Expert Teacher Answer Clean water is essential in order that living things survive. Water comes from the rain and is produced as part of the water cycle. However water companies work on ensuring that there is enough water supply to towns, cities and villages. They also ensure that the environment is protected and that people have access to clean water. We have to pay water bills in order to ensure that they are able to recycle waste water and provide the water that we need for living, leisure, industry and farming. In third world countries access to clean water is not always easy and therefore aid agencies are working on ensuring that people have the clean water that they need to live and carry out essential activities for life. If we waste too much water then it will have a detrimental effect on the environment. KS2 Geography 12: Should the high street be closed to traffic? Exercise No: 1 Name: What is the high street like?

KS2 Geography 14: Investigating rivers Peer Assessment Question and Expert Answer Question Describe the main parts of a river.

It continues downhill eroding its banks, producing a v-shaped valley and sometimes forming rapids or waterfalls. Over a long period of time it could erode a v-shaped valley. The river slows down as it falls less steeply and begins to deposit the material it has eroded. It also begins to meander, and to form flood plains. At the end of its journey it can flow into the sea forming an estuary or a delta. Where the river ends is called its mouth.

Peer Assessment Question and Expert Answer Question What do you think the countryside will be like in 25 years time? Expert Teacher Answer Many urban areas may have grown and taken over the countryside. Villages may become merged with nearby towns and cities. These villages may lose their character and individuality as a result. There may also suffer from a loss of community spirit. In addition, local people may be priced out of the market as more and more outsiders buy second homes in rural areas. In such villages, there may be a growth of services. Nevertheless, some villages may suffer from a decline in services as people are tempted to move out, because the environment around them is no longer attractive (former mining activities may have scarred the landscape, for example). Some villages may remain the same as the Government and organisations, like the Countryside Alliance, may oppose any change or restrict development.

Expert Teacher Answer There are many differences that can be observed. For example, Mexico has a larger land area and higher population than the UK. In Mexico, fewer people live in towns and cities (urban areas) than in the UK. Life expectancy (the average number of years a person is expected to live) is lower and infant mortality rates (the number of children dying before the age of a year) are higher in Mexico than in the UK due to less advanced medical care. Spanish is the official language and there are also 62 living languages in Mexico today, unlike in the UK, where English is widely spoken. Although children in towns and cities in Mexico have the chance to pursue their education, this is not often the case in rural areas, where boys and girls are frequently expected to work on the land to help support their families. In the UK, schooling is compulsory from the age of five to sixteen years. In Mexican villages, houses are often simple, with up to ten familiy members per household. In the UK, dwellings are of a more permanent nature and lived in by fewer people.
