Hill: Study elevated areas lower than mountains.
Valley: Discover deep furrows usually located between mountains or hills, carved by rivers or streams.
Depression: Explore places in the ground lower than sea level, often dried-up basins of seas or lakes.

Slope: Study the angled sides of mountains.
Summit: Understand the highest part of a mountain.
Top: Discover the peak of a mountain’s summit.
Peak: Learn about mountains with pointed tops.
Crest: Study rows of peaks connected by high ridges.

Booklets and wall charts are not included in the homeschool version. The three-part card format includes control cards, which children can use to match labels and pictures. If desired, these control cards can be bound and used as booklets. We have opted to exclude booklets and wall charts to make the homeschool edition more cost-effective.
