Lesson 1Land Dangers like Floods, Landslides, Gullies, and Earth MovesThis lesson looks at land dangers such as river floods, ground slides, deep cuts from water, and big earth shifts. Students connect causes, land features, and how people use land to map dangers, check risks, and plan ways to stop them in our villages.

You will connect land numbers to washing away, slide risks, water paths, and building plans in different land types around South Sudan.

Students link water path shapes to rock types, structures, rises, and long-time land changes in our rivers.

You will understand how bends, breaks, and rock strength change land rises, water paths, and places for resources or dangers in South Sudan.

You will study bends, braids, sudden shifts, and flood plain building, connecting actions to channel shapes and handling in our communities.

You will connect weather measures to water flow types and water supply in different areas of South Sudan.

You will check clearness, truth, and info notes, and try mixing sources for area land study in our region.

Students learn to read pictures for land shapes, water paths, plants, and ground wet, and spot common fix problems and limits.

Students connect start material, feel, and build to ground types, richness, water pass, and land use fit across lands in South Sudan.
