Our Community’s Geography

Land Forms Project

In the context of studying how geography influences where people choose to live:

1) Students learned, This Land Is Your Land, a song which portrays the natural beauty of our country and reminds us that it's available for all of us.



2) Students watched a movie in BrainPop Jr. about various land forms found in our country and how they affect where people live. Students discussed these effects and we recorded their responses using a graphic organizer, Kidspiration.






3) Students drew pictures of the various land forms studied using the program Kid Pix.



4) The class recorded a version of This Land Is Your Land using the program Garage Band.




5) Using a program called Animoto we made a presentation of their drawings and song.


Here are the culminating projects from the second grade classes:
