the importance of Relief features in terms of Economic Development of the
country
2. Analyze
the productive and protective role of Himalaya.
LEARNING
OBJECTIVES:
Students will be able to:
·
Identify the role of natural forces
causing changes in the earth landforms
·
Analyze the importance of Himalayas as
Climatic Divide
·
Assess the role of northern plains as
food bowl of India
·
Distinguish between Western Ghats and
Eastern Ghats
·
Locate, label and identify various
mountain passes, peaks and other important physical features of India on the
outline political map of India
CONTENT
FLOW:
(DAY 1): The students
will be shown illustrations/pictures
of various landforms.They will be asked to classify the pictures shown into different
categories.Further the students will be asked to explain the criteria of
classification.Taking these responses from the students, the teacher would
further ask them whether there is uniformity in landforms on the earth or not.After
this discussion, the topic will be introduced in the class.
