I wonder how people used totalk to each other long ago.2

This is a cave drawing. It shows us how people lived.It is a way for others to learn about the past.2

Now, we have books to help us learn.The pictures and the words help us to understand.2

This is a message in a bottle.It used water to carry messages back to land.But waves could wash it away.2

This is the Pony Express. They carriedletters by land. But this took a long time.2

This is a carrier pigeon. It carried letters in the air.But sometimes the pigeon would get lost.2

Now, when we need to send a letter or a package,we use faster transportation.What transportation do we use?2

This is a telegraph. It uses electricity and sound.It has its own language withdots and dashes called Morse code.2

Now, we have cellphones and the internet.We can send text messages to people. It is very fast.2

Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go travelLet’s go, let’s go to see the landformsUp icy mountains Down to the dark cavesLook all around usWe are all amazedAmazing LandformsLet’s go, let’s go, let’s go travelLet’s go, let’s go to see the landformsOver rolling hillsAnd through grassy plainsLook all around usWe are all amazed5

Our Earth is lled with many kinds of shapes.These shapes are called landforms.5

Let’s travel around the world to nd theseamazing landforms. We can start from thetop and go down to the bottom.5

These are mountains. They are tall and pointy.At the top, it is very cold. It is harder to breathe.5

This is a volcano.It looks like a mountain, but it is very hotat the top. It can explode at any time.5

That is called a plateau.It is high and at at the top.Do you think it looks like a table?5

We are on a hill. It is not very high.It is round at the top. We can slide down it.5

Now we are in a valley. It looks like the letter V.It was made by water or wind.It took a very long time to make.5

We are on the plains of Africa.It is very at and has a lot of grass.Many animals live here.5

Here are the wetlands.Look how the water covers the ground!Wetlands help keep our ocean clean.5

Here is the desert. It is very dry.It doesn’t rain very much. It can be very hotduring the day, and very cold at night.5

There is a big basin down there.It’s shaped like a bowl.Sometimes basins are made from earthquakes.5

It’s time to go underground. Now we are in acave. It is very dark, and we can see many bats.5

A landform can be created in just a fewyears or over millions of years.We are amazed by the power of nature.5
