Today:

- Paragraph 3: VOLCANOES!!!

- You're going to make your own tests!

- You're going to write a news story!

- If there's time left: movie clip

Let's read paragraph 3 together

Page 100-101

Exercise I: Let's make our own test!

What do you do?

Come up with 3 questions from chapter 5, paragraph I (Ring of Fire); 3 questions from paragraph II (Earthquakes) and another 3 from paragraph III (Volcanoes) = 9 questions in total.

Write these down. Your neighbour does the same. Then, answer each other's questions.

10 minutes to come up with questions.

5 minutes to answer them.

Don't make them too easy!

Example question

What is the Ring of Fire?

Who can answer this question?

(Don't use this one in your test! :))

Exercise II: From now on you're a news reporter! (15 min.)

Imagine you're working for a very big news agency: CNN, Al Jazeera, BBC, etc.

A major volcanic eruption has just taken place.. And you're the only one reporting!

Search for a movie clip on YouTube named "volcanic eruption" and report as best you can!

This should be at least in your report:

- What do you see? (Describe the situation)

- Where does it take place?

- When did it take place?

- Who's affected?

- What has happened and what could be done about it?

(150 - 200 words, 15 min.)
