Learning Goals
Students will be able to identify and label Peru’s mountains, rivers, and coast on a simple map so they can notice how landforms and bodies of water look different in each place.
Students will be able to describe how Peru’s mountains, rivers, and coast help people, plants, and animals live in different ways.
Students will be able to choose important landforms and bodies of water for a visitor’s map and explain why those features should be included.
Students will be able to listen, speak clearly, and use feedback to revise a label, picture, or map detail before sharing their Peru work.
Products
Labeled Peru Map Investigation Notebook
Each student creates a simple investigation notebook with a labeled Peru map, picture notes, and short sentence or oral-response prompts about how mountains, rivers, and the coast help living things. It shows what the student noticed, chose, and explained independently.
Peru Landforms and Waterways Showcase Poster with Oral Tour
Small teams create a shared poster or display that combines members’ map evidence, captions, and simple visuals into one clear explanation for visitors. The team presents an oral tour that highlights key landforms, why they matter, and how the group handled different observations or choices.
