A volcano is a vent on Earth’s crust. It can
release magma, ash, and other gases. The mouth
of the vent is called crater. What do you call the
circular depression formed either by explosion Xian: The Caldera, teacher.
or collapse of the volcano? Yes, Xian.

(Volcanic Materials)
During a volcanic eruption, different kinds of
materials may be released from the vent of a
volcano. These materials may be classified into Eve: Gases, Lava flow, and Pyroclastic

What are they? Yes, Eve.

(Status of a Volcano)

Everyone what are the status of volcanoes? Yes,

Gabi. Gabi: Active, Dormant or inactive and Extinct
Volcanoes.

Excellent! Let’s clap our hands for Gabi!

(All applauded)
Yes, the status of the volcanoes may be active,
dormant, or extinct.

Active volcano has at least one eruption during

the past 10000 years. Active volcano has at least one eruption during
the past 10000 years.
Dormant or inactive volcano is a volcano that
has not erupted for the past 10000 years but still Dormant or inactive volcano is a volcano that
expected to erupt again. has not erupted for the past 10000 years but

expected to ever erupt again.

G. Answering of the questions

Let us answer your questions. Who wants to
read and answer the first question. Yes, Ben.

Ben: What is a Volcano?

- A volcano is a vent on Earth’s crust. It can
release magma, ash, and other gases.

Very Good! Lt’s clap our hands for Ben! (All applauded)

How about the second question? Yes, angel.

Angel: Why there is a Volcanic eruption?
- When enough magma builds up in the
magma chamber, it forces its way up to the
surface and erupts.

Brilliant! Let’s clap our hands for Angel! (All applauded)

Who wants to read and answer question number

3? Yes, Samantha. Samantha: How do we know that the volcano
is active?
- A volcano is classified as active when it
erupts at least one during the past 10000
years.

(All applauded)
Excellent! Let’s clap our hands for Samantha!

Everyone, I will divide you into three groups.
Each group will choose a representative to pick
a paper from the box containing different types
of volcanoes. Your task is to draw the selected
volcano, write its definition, and explain what
make it unique from the others. You will have 7
minutes for drawing and 2 minutes for the
description and explanation. Please select a
leader and reporter in your group.

II. Define the status of a Volcano. 1. Active volcano has at least one eruption
 (15 PTS) during
the past 10000 years.

2. Dormant or inactive volcano is a

volcano that has not erupted for the past
10000 years but still expected to erupt
again.

3. Extinct volcano is a volcano that has not

erupted for at least 10000 years and is
not expected to ever erupt again.

V. Assignment
Answer self-check 1, 2 and 3 in your science
book, page 332.

1. What are the different forms of volcano

according to their physical feature? 1. Stratovolcanoes or composite volcanoes:
These volcanoes have steep slopes and
are composed of alternating layers of
lava, ash, and volcanic rocks. They are
known for their explosive eruptions.

Shield volcanoes: These volcanoes have

broad, gently sloping sides and are
primarily built by the flow of low-
viscosity lava. They typically have non-
explosive eruptions.

Cinder cone volcanoes: These are small,

steep-sided volcanoes built from ejected
lava fragments (cinders) that accumulate
around the vent. They often have
explosive eruptions characterized by
lava fountains and ash clouds.

2. How does an active volcano differ from a

dormant volcano? 2. Active volcano has at least one eruption
during the past 10000 years, while the
dormant volcano is a volcano that has
not erupted for the past10000 years but
is still expected to erupt again.

3. When is a volcano considered extinct? Extinct volcano is a volcano that has not
erupted for at least 10000 years and is not
expected to ever erupt again.
