Description
This product includes vocabulary, notes, and review for students that are learning about volcanoes.
Vocabulary words that are emphasized in this packet include: volcanoes, magma, crater, ash cloud, magma chamber, layers of ash, vent, lava flow, active volcanoes, extinct volcanoes, dormant volcanoes, Earth's crust, tectonic plates, lithosphere, divergent boundaries, transform boundaries, convergent boundaries, Mount St. Helens, and Volcanic Explosivity Index (VEI).
This product on volcanoes covers what a mountain is, how magma comes up to the surface which causes volcanoes to form and erupt, explosive volcanic eruptions compared to effusive volcanic eruptions, students will look at a diagram of a volcano and will label the parts of the volcano using the key, students will learn where volcanoes are found and the three different types of volcanoes - active, extinct, and dormant. Where magma volcanoes form, how pieces of the Earth's surface move slowly, what is the lithosphere and where it is located, where tectonic plates are located in the structure of the Earth, tectonic plates and the three boundaries and how they are different from one another - divergent, transform, and convergent boundaries, students will also learn about Mount St. Helens eruption on May 18th, 1980, students will also learn safety tips and how to prepare for a volcanic eruption, students will analyze two charts: how volcanoes are measured using the Volcanic Explosivity Index (VEI) and some volcanic eruptions in the 21st century, and students will choose a volcano to research and will answer questions after conducting research about a volcano in the packet provided at the end of the product.
Throughout the product, students will answer comprehension questions, true/false questions, multiple choice questions, will label diagrams to ensure comprehension as they are learning about volcanoes.
