Let's solve this step-by-step by matching each landform word on the left with the correct picture on the right.

Step 1: Understand the Landforms


We have 10 landform words:
- mountain
- valley
- hill
- volcano
- plains
- river
- lake
- ocean
- island
- canyon
- desert

Now, let’s analyze each picture on the right and match it to the correct term.

Step 2: Analyze Each Picture (from top to bottom, left to right)



1. Top-left picture: A deep, narrow valley with steep sides and a river running through it → This is a canyon.
- Match: canyon

2. Top-right picture: A cone-shaped mountain with smoke or lava coming out → This is a volcano.
- Match: volcano

3. Middle-left picture: A tall, pointed peak with snow on top → This is a mountain.
- Match: mountain

4. Middle-right picture: A low area between hills with trees and a small stream → This is a valley.
- Match: valley

5. Below that, left: Two rounded, grassy mounds → These are hills.
- Match: hill

6. Below that, right: A large flat area with scattered trees and open space → This is plains.
- Match: plains

7. Next row, left: Two people standing on a ridge looking down into a deep gap → This shows a canyon (already matched above). Wait — but we already used "canyon". Let’s check again.

Wait — actually, there are 11 pictures, but only 10 words listed. Let’s count:

Words: 11? Let's list them:
1. mountain
2. valley
3. hill
4. volcano
5. plains
6. river
7. lake
8. ocean
9. island
10. canyon
11. desert

Yes, 11 words.

But how many pictures?

Let’s count the drawings:

1. Canyon (top left)
2. Volcano (top right)
3. Mountain (middle left)
4. Valley (middle right)
5. Hills (below mountain)
6. Plains (below valley)
7. River (with people on banks)
8. Lake (oval body of water with sun)
9. Ocean (large wavy body with boat)
10. Island (small landmass with palm trees)
11. Desert (cacti and sand)

So 11 pictures and 11 words. Good.

Let’s go one by one.

Final Matching:



1. Canyon → Top-left image: deep, narrow gorge with walls and a river →

2. Volcano → Top-right: cone with lava/smoke →

3. Mountain → Middle-left: tall, pointy peak with snow →

4. Valley → Middle-right: low area with trees and stream →

5. Hill → Below mountain: two rounded, grassy bumps →

6. Plains → Below valley: flat, wide area with trees →

7. River → Below hills: two people on banks, water flowing →

8. Lake → Below river: oval body of water with sun →

9. Ocean → Below lake: large wavy body with boat →

10. Island → Below ocean: small land with palm trees →

11. Desert → Bottom-right: cacti and dry ground →

Final Answer: Draw lines as follows:



- mountain → picture of tall, snowy peak (middle-left)
- valley → picture with low area between hills (middle-right)
- hill → picture of two rounded mounds (below mountain)
- volcano → picture with smoking cone (top-right)
- plains → flat area with trees (below valley)
- river → picture with people on banks (below hills)
- lake → oval body of water (below river)
- ocean → large wavy water with boat (below lake)
- island → small land with palm trees (below ocean)
- canyon → deep gorge with river (top-left)
- desert → cacti and dry ground (bottom-right)
