Across
- 6. A giant, slow-moving river of ice made from snow that gets packed down over millions of years, eventually becoming so heavy it flows downhill or spreads out.
- 7. A smaller river or stream that flows into a bigger river or lake.
- 13. Areas of land that are much higher than the ground around them, usually featuring many mountains, hills, and steep slopes.
- 15. A U-shaped or curved part of the sea or a large lake where the land dips inward, creating a sheltered area of water that's connected to the bigger water but partly surrounded by land.
- 16. A piece of land that sticks out from a bigger land mass, and has water on most sides (usually three) but is still connected to the mainland.
- 18. A narrow, natural waterway that connects two larger bodies of water, acting like a bridge for ships between.
- 20. The natural, geographical, or physical features of Earth.
- 22. A very dry place that gets almost no rain, so it has few plants and animals, but they can be hot and sandy like the Sahara, or cold and icy like Antarctica.
- 23. A narrow, natural waterway that connects two larger bodies of water, acting like a bridge for ships between.
- 25. It is like a mountain with a hole that lets hot, melted rock (magma), ash, and gas escape from deep inside the Earth, creating an eruption.
- 26. A big still body of water surrounded by land on all sides, bigger than a pond often having fish, plants, and other animals living in and around it.
- 27. A giant, deep crack or valley in the Earth with very steep sides, often carved out over millions of years by a river cutting through rock.
Down
- 1. A low, long area of land between hills or mountains, often with a river or stream running through the bottom, shaped by water or ice wearing away the land over a very long time.
- 2. A big flat area of land with few or no hills or mountains, often covered in grass. (A prairie)
- 3. A huge, continuous body of salty water that covers most of our planet, holding almost all the Earth's water.
- 4. A narrow strip of land with sea on either side, forming a link between two larger areas of land.
- 5. A big flat-topped area of land that's much higher than the ground around it, with steep sides like a wall or cliff.
- 6. A large, deep part of the ocean that curves into the land, usually surrounded by land on three sides.
- 8. A small, shallow, quiet pool of fresh water that's shallow enough for sunlight to reach the bottom, letting plants grow everywhere and making it a busy habitat.
- 9. A piece of land completely surrounded by water.
- 10. A large, low-lying, bowl-shaped depression in the Earth’s surface, where the sides are higher than the center.
- 11. A fan-shaped or triangular area of land formed at the mouth of a river where it empties into a larger body of water, such as an ocean or lake.
- 12. A big natural stream of flowing water that flows from a starting point down hill to a larger source of water.
- 14. A small, rounded bump on the Earth that's higher than the ground around it but much smaller and easier to climb than a big mountain.
- 17. A group, chain, or cluster of islands scattered across a body of water like a ocean, sea or lake.
- 19. A smaller river or stream that flows into a bigger river or lake.
- 21. A narrow strip of land with sea on either side, forming a link between two larger areas of land.
- 24. A huge piece of land that sticks way up high, much taller and steeper than a hill, with a pointy top (summit or peak) and sloping sides.
