Objectives
At the end of this lesson, the students will be able to:

name the different types of landforms.
understand the characteristics of such landforms.

Ma'm : Children , our earth is made up of land and water.
Today we will study about the different types of landforms of
earth.

Student: Ma'm, what are the different types of landforms?

Ma'm : They are plain, hill and mountains

This is the picture of
plain. The landform
which is low and #at
is called plain. It is
called Terai in our
country. It is very hot.
It is very good for
growing crops and
vegetables. Fruits like
banana, mango, litchi
and papaya grow in Terai. The road is easy. So it is easy to go
from one place to another.

Anil Chaudhary: Ma'm, my maternal uncle's house is in Terai.
I go there during holidays. I go "shing in the nearby pond with
my friends. We go to the market riding on rickshaws and tangas.
I go to farmland riding on a bullock cart with my grandfather.

Note to the teacher: The lesson will be more clear and interesting provided diagrams,
pictures and charts are used to show different types of landforms. Ask who lives in plain,
hill and mountain. Let students talk about the place they live.

76 Social Studies & Creative Arts Book 1

Ma'm: Anil, we all are happy that your maternal uncle's home
is in Terai.

Student: Ma'm, what is hill? Show us the picture.

The landform which
is steep and higher
than the plain is
called hill. It is not
very hot and not
very cold in hill.
Fruits like guava,
pears, apricots and
strawberries grow in hill. The road is not so easy like in Terai.
It is steep and narrow. One has to walk up and down. Horses,
donkeys and mules are the chief means of transport. Most of the
hills are covered with forest. They look green and beautiful.

Student: Ma'm, what is mountain?

Ma'm: This is the picture of a mountain.

The landform which

always snow on the mountain peaks. Many tourists come to
our district to see beautiful mountains. In our school there
are trees of fruits like orange, guava and apricot. There is also
a beautiful garden with benches. When we feel cold, teachers
bring us to the garden to read. We feel warm and happy.

Very close to the school, there is a small stream. There is a
small bridge over the stream. We cross the stream through a
bridge. There will be lots of water in the stream when it rains.
Nearby the stream there is sloppy land where people grow
crops, vegetables and fruits.

One day, I asked
my father, “Father
how can crops,
vegetables and
fruits grow on the
sloppy land?” My
father said, “Farmers
cut down the sloppy
land and make it
a #at land. Big #at
land is called Tar.
So, it will be easy
to grow crops and
vegetables.” I am
very happy to know
about it. Now, I can
tell my friends what a Tar is.

There is also a stone water sprout near my school. People
collect drinking water from here. On the way home after school,
my friends and I like to drink fresh water of stone water sprout.
People are not allowed to wash and take bath here. The water
is only for drinking and cooking food. I love my school. It is
located in hills. It has very beautiful surroundings.

There are different types of houses.
This is a big house.

Big houses are mostly found in the

kitchen, bathroom and verandahs.
Some of the big houses have one
storey or many storeys. The houses

The houses built in the villages are mostly small. They look
different than the big houses. In the village areas, houses are
made up of wood, bamboo and mud. Many of them have
thatched roofs. They do not have many rooms. They use wood
instead of brick. They use mud instead of cement. They use
bamboo and straw to build the roof. Some of the houses in
the village are two-storeyed.

In mountain areas, it is very cold, windy. It also receives snow
fall. Here, the houses are built with stones and wood. They
have small windows and doors to keep the house warm.

Teacher: Kiran, what are you drawing?

Kiran: Firstly, I am drawing the shape of my school. Then,
I will draw doors and windows and colour them
blue and white. I will make the walls like brick and
colour red. I will colour green for the roof of my
school.

Teacher: Your drawing looks quite good. Keep it up !

my school. Oh! I did not know that there were so
many things around my school. First let me draw
swing and colour orange. Near the swing there is
slide. I will colour it yellow. There are some trees
around the school building. I will colour them green.
There is a big play ground in front of the school
building where there is a basketball court. There
are dustbins at several places. There is a hall at the
side of the basketball court. There is toilet near the
hall. There are brick walls all around my school and
a big school gate with school sign board above.

Teacher: Kiran, I have seen all the drawings of class one, but I
like your drawing the most. You have not forgotten
to draw any of the things around your school. Why
have you not coloured some of the things?

Kiran: I will colour them at the last. First, I will "nish all the
drawings. Teacher, can I draw sky, hills, clouds and
birds that I can see above my school? They look so
beautiful.

surrounding beautiful.
