Questions about The Land and the Work

What does the The Land and the Work worksheet cover?

It practices how the land shapes the work done — 2 questions for Kindergarten to Grade 2, all on C3 Framework D2.Geo.9.K-2: Describe how the land in a place shapes the work done there. The instruction to students is “Draw a line from each place to the work done there”, and the answer key follows on the next sheet.

Does The Land and the Work come with an answer key?
