  1.  Use the graphic organizer below to summarize the major processes that formed the Mysterious Chocolate Hills.Link to video: Soar Over the Chocolate Hills in the Philippines | National Geographic - YouTube
    (https://youtu.be/pVS8hk6wY4o)
The Chocolate Hills are a mysterious geological formation in the
Bohol Province of the Philippines. Over 1700 hills are spread
over 20 square miles. The hills are covered with grass that
turns brown during the dry season. This gives the hills their
characteristic color. Several local legends explain how the hills
may have formed; including a story of two giants who fought
for days throwing rocks at each other. (image)
BUT THESE FEATURES...
Watch the National Geographic Video
featured to the left. The video
summarizes the origin of the hills in the
following way:
↑
"the Chocolate Hills, formed naturally,
over millions of years. The land's
limestone base formed from skeletons of
sea life. Geologic processes lifted the
rock, and water slowly eroded it. Similar
processes carve limestone around the
world, but the Chocolate Hills'
combination of shape and uniformity
makes them unique."
