2. F4A Geography Field Trip (Ma Shi Chau) Group2 Lau Mei Kuen(13) Cheung Yuk Ying(4) Ho Yan Chak(9) Chong Chi Hing(5)

3. Introduction Date:16th April,2005 Time:1:30p.m.-6:00p.m. Place:Ma Shi Chau Weather:rain,not very hot, a little wet

4. objectives n To train the skills of field observation n To study landforms associated with endogenetic processes n To study landforms associated with exogenetic processes n To study urban sprawl n To learn the skills of presentation n To enhance the generic skills of the students n To encourage students to apply IT skills in learning

6. Description and Explanation Site 1 n Secondary production n A cement factory n separate people from residents n rent:suitable and cheap n transportation: good enough

9. Site 4 n Deposition n Transportation n wave bought sandy deposits n an increase or decrease in water to land every day n wind bought sandy deposits to sea n sediment deposited n wave bought sediment through flowing

10. Additional information n Follow the trail to Yim Tin Tsai for a bird's eye view of the sand bar linking Yim Tin Tsai and Ma Shi Chau. In geological terms, this is called a "tombolo"( 連島沙州 ). n A bulletin board with details of Ma Shi Chau Special Area can be found at the starting point of the Nature Trail.

11. Site5 n Tensional or compressional forces n originating from tectonic movement n faults are prone to weathering and erosion n material in rocks: iron( contains oxygen) n change rock’s size n colour: red and brown

12. The Formation of Exdogenetic Process n Mighty nature : folding n nature shapes rocks into various forms n rocks are folded n folds are warps in rock layers caused by compressional forcesand n are most apparent in sedimentary rock with sedimentary beddings n the pressure stronger than the limit the rock layers can withstand is applied, rocks will be cracked and displaced

13. Chong Chi Hing’s Feeling nInInInIn this field trip, I think the most terrible thing is that I have never got into a rough time which was the heavy rain. It was really uncomfortable ! However, I think I enjoy the learning experience of this field trip because I can learn more about Geography and some information more deeper.Not only that, I think my member, Cheung Yuk Ying who is the best one taking the essential role in my group. She did not only do things actively and being a domestic helper but also took care of every member in our group.Therefore, I think she is very sensible in this group. I think I have honor because of her. Therefore I think this field trip is quite meaningful.

14. n This flied trip is memorable! I can learn much more than studying on the lesson!There were some obstacles in this field trip.The road is difficult to walk and because the help of my members, I can finish the field trip and insist to not give up. Cheung Yuk Ying’s Feeling

15. Ho Yan Chak’s Feeling nInInInI learn a lot of things in this field trip. I can learn many things other than books, we must see it by our eyes. So I very agree this field trip.But I am not happy because the weather is not good in that day.I was sick after that day, I think it was caused by the rain. At the same time, I build up a good relationship with my members.

16. Lau Mei Kuen’s Feeling n I am very happy to have a field trip. For me, I am not good at Geography. Sometimes, I think it is quiet difficult to understand the endogenetic process(folding, compression, etc). But I enjoyed it because I do not have this kind of opportunity in daily life. n My most impressed thing is that rain falling down during the field trip! Many of us were wet and surely felt surprised!
