Come, young ones, and let's explore,
The world around us, and so much more,
There are landforms to see and know,
And we'll discover them as we go!

First up, let's talk about terrain,
The land beneath our feet, not plain,
There's the plateau, up high we'll stand,
Flat on top, but steep off land!

Next, let's go to the gorge,
A deep, narrow valley, so much to forge,
With steep walls and a winding way,
It's a beauty, any time of day!

Then, there's the delta, where rivers meet,
Spreading out, a vast wetland treat,
Different from the plateau, it's wet and green,
A perfect spot for animals to be seen!

If you ever want to cross from land to land,
The isthmus is where you'll take your stand,
A narrow strip of land, it connects the shore,
An important type of landform, to explore!

Finally, let's talk about the interstate,
A highway running through different states,
It crosses different terrain, you see,
Beneath the hills and over the prairies.

So there you have it, a quick tour,
Of the landforms we have in store,
From the gorge to the plateau and more,
Explore the world, and never be bored!

Reflections

1. What is a plateau, and how is it different from other landforms like gorges and deltas?
2. What is an isthmus, and why is it an important type of landform to know about?
3. How do interstates cross different types of terrain, such as hills and prairies?
4. Have you ever seen any of these landforms in person?
5. Can you think of any other landforms that weren't mentioned in the story?
