Let’s go through each landform and match it to the correct description. We’ll read each term, then find the description that fits best — like solving a puzzle!
---
1. Cliff
→ A high steep slope made of rock or soil usually along an ocean or sea.
*(Cliffs are tall, vertical faces — think of ocean cliffs!)*
2. Dune
→ A pile of sand created by the waves or the wind.
*(Dunes are sandy hills you see at beaches or deserts.)*
3. Valley
→ Low land between hills and mountains.
*(Valleys are low areas surrounded by higher ground.)*
4. Floodplain
→ A flat area surround river sides that floods when the river rises.
*(Floodplains get wet when rivers overflow.)*
5. Continent
→ One of seven of the largest bodies of land on earth.
*(There are 7 continents: Africa, Antarctica, Asia, etc.)*
6. Mountain
→ High with a peak and made of rocks and soils, sometimes with snow at the tops.
*(Mountains are tall, pointy, and can have snow caps.)*
7. Desert
→ An area of land that is completely surrounded by water. ← Wait —
