River Severn

Page history last edited by rogbi200 15 years ago

Welcome to JDRN's WIKI, if you are joining us from the brilliant River Severn tour on the Woodlands School Website.

We are a Year four class at Bilton Grange School, near Rugby in Warwickshire, UK. Our Blog can be read here.

 

We have been studying the River Severn as part of our rivers topic, and below are some notes that we have found really useful.

 

First let's see the route of the river.

 

Here's a website all about the river.

 

On MapSkip, I have linked some videos to places on the river

 

This link talks about some River Processes.

 

The Staffordshire Learning Net has a useful page with an activity about the Upper, Middle and Lower courses.

 

And the Woodlands School site has a fantastic new section all about the River Severn, with loads of information and pictures.

Teachers TV has a very good video: Seven Severn snapshots. It's 15 minutes long.

 

This newspaper asked one of their reporters to travel down the Severn from Source to Sea after the great floods of July 2007

 

The BBC site shows which areas were affected by the great flood of 2007

 

Some more photos of the Severn can be seen on this page.

 

I've made these Videos, flying down the river from Source to Sea:
