Landscapes: 4th Grade During this Unit, our 4th graders were studying different landforms and looking at different landscapes (specifically Denmark) in their classrooms. The homeroom teacher and I worked together and discussed ways to make different landforms relevant and understandable to our students when they might not have seen these landforms before. In art classes, we discussed different landforms and looked at many Moroccan as well as Danish landscapes. I had students describe what the landscape outside their homes looked like and how each one is different, each one has different elements that make them unique, even from our own back yard. Then, we each created our own unique landscape that included these certain elements, but didnt necessarily need to be something they have seen before, but that could exist.
