Begin the lesson by discussing the concept of mountains and how they differ from hills. Use engaging visuals to capture students' interest.

Introduce the learning objectives, emphasizing the processes of mountain formation and the significance of famous mountains like Mount Everest and Mount Fuji.

Explain the formation of mountains through tectonic plate movement and volcanic eruptions. Highlight the characteristics that differentiate mountains from hills.

Use the video 'Mountain Ranges of the World' to provide a visual understanding of how major mountain ranges are formed and their ecological importance.

Facilitate a discussion on the historical formation and characteristics of Mount Everest and Mount Fuji, encouraging students to share what they know.

Watch 'The Incredible World of Caves' to understand geological processes and adaptations in unique ecosystems, linking to mountain formation.

Engage students in a hands-on activity to model mountain formation using clay or playdough, simulating tectonic plate movements and volcanic eruptions.

Assign the 'Earth’s Landforms' assessment to reinforce students' ability to identify and describe various landforms, including mountains.

Conduct a quick quiz to assess students' understanding of the characteristics and formation of mountains.

Have students reflect on what they learned about mountains and share any new insights or questions they have.

Provide the 'Comprehension – Earth’s Landforms' assessment to further evaluate students' understanding of how mountains and other landforms are created.

Encourage students to explore local landforms and create a presentation on how they were formed, using the 'Local Land and Water Features' assessment as a guide.
