Landform Flipbooks

This past week in Science, we began learning all about landforms on our planet. We learned that islands, caverns, canyons, valleys, mountains, and volcanoes are major landforms we see in our world.
 
To summarize what we learned this week we made landform flipbooks! I  must give a HUGE "THANK YOU" to the grade-level assistants for stapling these flipbooks together for us and having them ready for us to complete by Friday. You are awesome!


 
Each layer of the flipbook represented a different landform. The students cut each layer according to what the landform was!

 
Then they used crayons or colored pencils to add details to each layer so that they would know what the layer represented.
 
Light blue- Island
Dark Brown- Cavern
Light Brown- Canyon
Green- Valley
White/Gray- Mountain
Black- Volcano

 
 
Each student was also given a sheet of labels to add to each layer. The labels were the names of the landforms.

 
While we worked on each layer the Landform powerpoint played.

 
Nice work!

This culminating activity was a fun way to reinforce what had already been learned. It will also serve as a study guide for next week's quiz!
