Land Ho’

Upon completing our introduction to the five themes of geography (with the help of MR. HELP), we began to look at landforms, which affect and are affected by all five themes.

Our first task was to create a list of landforms. As our list of landforms lengthened, it was interesting to learn about the defining characteristics of each and how each is formed. The formation of landforms connects directly to our first science unit, which explores the processes of weathering, erosion, and deposition.

To test your knowledge of landforms, take a tour of the globe using Google Earth. How many landforms can you identify and explain? As you participate in this virtual scavenger hunt, think about:

  • how the landform was formed.
  • how it has changed and will change over time.
  • how it affects and is affected by people.

Do you know…

… what this landform is called?
