Landforms are natural features of the Earth's surface, shaped by wind, water, and tectonic forces over millions of years. These flash cards help students identify different types of landforms by their characteristics, from towering mountains to deep ocean trenches.
These flash cards pair landform types with their descriptions. Students flip cards to learn that a PLATEAU is a flat-topped highland, a VALLEY is a low area between hills, and a PENINSULA is land surrounded by water on three sides.
Use these flash cards to introduce a landforms unit. After studying with the cards, take students on a virtual tour using satellite imagery to see real examples of each landform. Have students create a travel brochure featuring three landforms from the cards.
