Let’s go step by step to match each picture with the correct land or water form.
We have 8 pictures total — 4 on the left (land forms) and 4 on the right (water forms).
The word bank is split too:
Land Forms (left side):
- cape
- isthmus
- island
- peninsula
Water Forms (right side):
- bay
- gulf
- lake
- strait

Step 1: Look at the first row
Left image (brown shape in blue):
It’s a piece of land sticking out into water, but still connected to a larger landmass. That’s a
peninsula.
Right image (blue shape in brown):
It’s a body of water surrounded by land on three sides, open to the sea. That’s a
bay.
→ So first row:
peninsula |
bay
---
Step 2: Second row
Left image:
Land jutting out sharply into water — like a point. That’s a
cape.
Right image:
A large area of water almost completely surrounded by land, bigger than a bay. That’s a
gulf.
→ Second row:
cape |
gulf
---
Step 3: Third row
Left image:
Land completely surrounded by water. That’s an
island.
Right image:
Water completely surrounded by land. That’s a
lake.
→ Third row:
island |
lake
---
Step 4: Fourth row
Left image:
A narrow strip of land connecting two larger land areas, with water on both sides. That’s an
isthmus.
Right image:
A narrow passage of water between two land masses. That’s a
strait.
→ Fourth row:
isthmus |
strait
---
Now let’s write them in order from top to bottom for left column (land forms) and right column (water forms):
Left Column (Land Forms):
1. peninsula
2. cape
3. island
4. isthmus
Right Column (Water Forms):
1. bay
2. gulf
3. lake
4. strait
Final Answer:
Left column (top to bottom): peninsula, cape, island, isthmus
Right column (top to bottom): bay, gulf, lake, strait
