TRANSCRIPT

Tim

I’m falling down as precipitation near the

watershed.

1

I’m rolling down the V-shaped valley. It’s quite

steep. The river’s quite thin so I hope there’s enough

space for me.

2

I’m in for a rocky ride. It's fast flowing and

very thin. I’m definitely still in the upper stage.

3

Aaaaaaaagh! I’m falling down

a waterfall.

4

This is so fast I’m almost falling

apart.

5

Getting nearer the end of the middle passage

and around the corner there’s an oxbow lake

6

The meanders are turning everywhere.

And it's getting flatter around here.

7

The rivers taking forever to get me to the beach. And my friend’s

just fell onto a floodplain.

8

Look at the rivers load. It’s not strong enough to hold it in the lower stage.

9

Look at the massive floodplains either side. And the meanders are going everywhere too.

10

Look! I’m coming up to the river mouth

and the sea.

11

I’ve made it with all of my friends.
