Key questions and ideas. To understand more about the structure of the earth. What is the role of plate tectonics in forming volcanoes? To understand that volcanoes come in many shapes and sizes, but primarily occur at the boundary between tectonic plates. .
The document provides a detailed lesson plan for teaching students about the different types of volcanoes. It includes objectives, subject matter, and learning activities. Students will be divided into groups to draw and label the three main types of volcanoes - composite, shield, and cinder cones.
Lesson Plan 1 Volcanoes. Introduction. Discuss in pairs, groups or as a class. Features they know on the surface of the Earth. Islands, continents, hills, mountains, valleys, rivers, lakes, caves, oceans, beaches... Do these features change over time and what causes the changes?
2. Volcanoes Select the volcanoes overlay and locate Iceland on the map. Volcanoes are created through the upwelling of magma often where there are faults in the Earth’s crust. Due to a tectonic plate boundary running through the middle, Iceland is a hotspot for volcanic activity. a. What are the two tectonic plates and which way are they moving?
Students will be able to: understand volcano formation and types. identify key features of volcanic activity. see images of real active volcanoes. geographically locate 12 notable volcanoes. Skills: This lesson plan can aid students to demonstrate: Researching skills.
The lesson plan describes teaching students about volcanoes using a model volcano, discussing the parts of a volcano including the magma chamber, vent, and crater, and having students identify preventative measures that can be taken during volcanic eruptions.
Use the Volcaones PowerPoint presentation in conjunction with the Lesson Plan. The PowerPoint presentation contains photograph and images and follows the sequence of the lesson. The factsheet for teachers, to accompany this lesson also explains some of the key points in more detail. This lesson assumes prior knowledge from Lesson 4: Volcanoes.
