Play-doh Landforms

This was my first year using this activity while teaching landforms, but I couldn't be more thrilled with the results.  The students did an excellent job of recreating landforms with their play-doh. It was very exciting watching this "hands-on" learning experience.
         Here we have an island. Love the palm tree guys! :)
                                                                     
                                  A steep mountain
                              a very messy volcano
a hot pink cavern

                                    another volcano

     and another one that looks like it's actually erupting now!
                                      and a valley

I definitely will be using this from here on out. The kids had a blast and more importantly they were able to not only recall their landforms but recreate them without any definitions or descriptions. :)  Thank you to our parents who donated the play-doh.
