  5. 8. Where water cannot erode the tough bedrock, so flows over it and fall off an edge
  6. 10. A lake created when a meander is cut off
  7. 11. Water smashing into banks at high speed, wearing them away

Down
  1. 1. When materials are dropped as the river slows
  2. 5. world's largest river (most water)
  3. 6. Small particles bounce along the river bed
  4. 7. As rivers slow down, sediment is deposited creating slow, stagnant streams
  5. 9. The point at which two rivers meet
  6. 12. When a river erodes away the bank ant starts to curve

  12. 22. Particles are rolled along river bed
  13. 24. Particles collide, breaking into smaller pieces
  14. 26. As outside bends erode, water moves to inside bends, leaving material behind
