Kirk Michael investigation lesson 2 In groups of 3, create a presentation which will explain the problem in Kirk Michael to the commissioners. Half of the lesson will be spent researching and the other half will be spent creating the presentation. There should be 1 presentation per group. You must include at least 2 of the maps we looked at last lesson (see next slides for examples) and explain what they show as evidence. Each member of your group is assigned a job: Why is erosion happening so fast in Kirk Michael? What will the consequences of this erosion be? What you suggest should happen to stop the erosion. There are handy hints on the next few slides for each section. DO NOT SPEND ALL LESSON PICKING A THEME FOR YOUR POWERPOINT OR EXPERIMENTING WITH EVERY FONT ON WORD ART.
