Landforms

Geography is the study of a physical environment and human interaction with it. This environment includes features of the planet, animals, plants and cultures, and includes how humans live on the earth.  A child's first introduction to geography is in the home. That is, the child's exposure to the native culture. An important part of a child's education is an introduction to other cultures and environments. 

In Lower El, we begin our study of geography by learning about the landforms. Your child learns the basic landforms found on Earth- bay, cape, straight, isthmus, lake, and island.

Our first year students have started by creating an island and a lake.  Our second and third year students will soon begin focusing on advanced landforms.
