Landforms, Continent Maps, and Regions

The students worked on continent maps last week and labeled all the oceans too.  Hopefully they brought home the Continent Song and sang it to you!  This week, the students made landform booklets.  We drew hills, mountains, valleys, plains, islands, and peninsulas.  The students also drew lakes, rivers, and oceans to show the different kinds of water we have here on Earth!  It was lots of fun and their drawings are quite creative. Today we talked about regions.  The students are learning a lot about places near and far!  We had one Flat Stanley return from his vacation and we're looking forward to learning about all sorts of different places.
