4th Grade Earth's Surface Worksheets

Ages 9-10 · 1 sub-topic · Free previews · Print-ready PDFs

These Earth's surface worksheets for 4th grade look at the planet from the inside out. Students label Earth's four layers, read how pushing plates built the Himalayas, name mountains, rivers, lakes and islands on a map with a key, sort fast and slow changes to the land, and use a table to see where volcanoes and earthquakes happen along plate boundaries and the Ring of Fire. Five original sheets, each with an answer key, connect diagrams and maps to short readings (NGSS 4-ESS2-2 for maps of Earth's features).
