H. Making generalizations
and abstractions about
the lesson
Ask the learners to identify the parts of a volcano. Let them describe each part as
they identify it.
After the discussion, ask the learners to draw a volcano showing its internal parts.
Call someone from the class to discuss his/her work. Ask the students to submit
their work on the teacher’s gmail account.
Most of these learners have no idea of the Pinatubo eruption in 1991. Share to
them a little experience of yours or a little of what you know about the eruption. If
there is a closer volcano in your region, use that volcano instead.
Let the learners formulate their learned concepts about a volcano. You may ask
the following questions:
 What is the difference between a mountain and a volcano?
 What are the internal parts of a volcano?

On a piece of paper, let the learners write 3 things they have learned about the
I. Evaluating learning topic, 2 things that appear vague to them, and 1 question that they want to raise.
Or do an online test/game about volcano and its parts.
J. Additional activities for Ask the learners to interview their parents or anybody about their experience from
application or a volcanic eruption. This may include ideas or accounts that they have only seen
remediation from TV news or read from newspapers.
