Designed for Australian students in Years 7 and 8, this resource explores how natural features like mountains are formed and how dramatic events such as earthquakes and landslides shape the Earth’s surface. Students also learn how people live in areas prone to bushfires, floods, and other natural hazards. With a strong focus on iconic landforms both in Australia and globally, students build key geographical skills through map work, observation tasks, and optional fieldwork activities that can be adapted to your local area.
 
The Awe and Wonder of Landscapes and Landforms includes 16 lessons, designed to be completed over one or two terms. Filled with colour photographs, maps, and diagrams, the resource brings geography to life. Each lesson includes flexible questions that can be used for either Charlotte Mason-style narration or traditional comprehension. Clear guidance, adaptable scheduling, and a full answer guide make it easy to use in your homeschool while supporting your child’s confidence and curiosity as a young geographer.
 
Aligned with the Year 8 Australian Curriculum v9, and meeting the requirements of NSW Stage 4, the WA Curriculum, and the Victorian Curriculum.
