A landform is a natural feature on Earth’s surface.
A mountain is an area that is higher than the land around it.
Hills look like mountains, but they are smaller.
A valley is an area with higher land around it.
A canyon is a valley with steep walls.
These large, flat landforms are called plains.
A plateau is also a flat area, but it is higher than the land around it.
Deltas form at the ends of rivers.
Dunes form in dry areas or along sandy coasts.
Every island is a body of land surrounded by water.
