This resource focuses on understanding the distinction between natural and man-made landmarks, specifically using the Washington Monument as a key example. Students will engage with a photo of the monument to identify various objects, categorizing them based on whether they are found in nature or constructed by people. Through a series of reflective questions, students are encouraged to observe, think critically, and express wonder about the landmarks around them. The activity culminates in defining the term 'man-made,' fostering both observational and definitional skills.
