What mastery looks like
- Define a coast as where land meets the ocean
- Describe at least two types of coast: sandy, rocky, or muddy
- Name an animal likely found at each type of coast
Check your understanding
If Coasts & Beaches visited a sandy beach and then a rocky shore, could they describe how the two coasts look different and name animals you might find at each one?
