Terminal 5, Heathrow, has been one of the biggest construction projects in the world. Excavations by Framework Archaeology, in advance of the construction works, have uncovered almost 9,000 years of history.Archaeologists took soil samples from the excavated features. The environmental evidence is then analysed to give a picture of how the landscape developed over time
Hope you are all managing to get some revision completed despite the excitement of the snow !
Today I am posting a link to the Learning Teaching Scotland ( LTS) site to an excellent powerpoint about soils - you have seen some of it before. The other powerpoints we have spoken about in class will become available over the next few weeks so keep checking the site or ask me for the relevant links.

If you have any queries you can email me using the usual address if you need help or advice. Keep a record of the revision you are doing and then you can kep track of what needs to be done ! Organisation is the key - but then I would say that wouldn't I ?
