ANY GEOGRAPHY TEACHERS OUT THERE?

[noonar]

can anyone give me a really straight forward, easy to understand definition of the distiction between 'physical' and 'human' feratures (of a coastal environment)? we're off on a field trip, and i'd like a really concise def for my year 5s.

features

Physical features are to do with the natural landscape - cliffs, shape of the beach, beach mnaterial, etc. Human features are those built by people - style and use of buildings, beach/prom 'furniture', groynes etc. Sometimes physical features affect humans - eg beach washing away. And vice versa - groynes or walls of stone to protect the beach affecting longshore drift of sand along the shore.
Hth!
