The document explains the formation of volcanoes, describing them as vents on the Earth's surface that release magma, ash, and gas from a magma chamber below. It highlights the process of magma rising through a tube-like passage when pressure builds, resulting in lava flow, which solidifies into rocks and forms mountains. Additionally, it outlines the structure and language features of an explanation text, using volcanoes as an example, and includes an instructional activity about the life cycle of a frog.
