Landforms

The shape of land is constantly changing. Landscape that we see around us has not always been the way that it is. Here are the main forces that transform the look of the land:

• erosion
• weathering
• movement of tectonic plates
• movement of glaciers
• deposition
• fire

Assignment: make a poster that visually describes each of the forces that shape landforms.
