B. identified the parts of a volcano;
C. applied preventive measures during a volcanic activity.

II. SUBJECT MATTER

Topic: Volcano
Reference: Cyber Science 6
by: Villona, H. et.al pp. 267-269
Materials: LCD, laptop, model of a volcano, dishwashing paste, baking soda,
water, vinegar, spoon, cup

III. PROCEDURE
Teacher’s Activity Pupils’ Activity

A. Preparatory Activities
1. Setting of Standards
a. You can show respect by listening
to the teacher and to the one who is
talking.
b. There should be no cross-room
conversations during work time.
c. You can be responsible by
completing the assigned task.

2. Motivation
Have you seen a fountain? Yes ma’am.
What are some of the fountains that
you have seen? Will you name one? Chocolate fountain, water fountain and
firecracker fountain

Can you describe it? It is something that is sent up to the air

and falls back.

It is something that is forced up and falls

back.
Can you think of a landform that you
can compare to a fountain? A fountain is compared to a volcano.

B. Presentation
1. Exploration
Can you name some volcanoes that
you know in the Philippines? Mount Mayon in Albay
Where can you find them? Taal Volcano in Batangas
Mount Pinatubo in Zambales

Have you seen them erupt?

How does it look like when it erupts? It emits gasses and smoke into the air. It
has a mudflow of lava.

I am holding something, what can you

see? A model volcano.
 How would you like to see this volcano
erupts?

May I ask somebody to pour a half-cup

vinegar at the opening of a volcano?

Observe what happens.

2. Comparison and Abstraction

Describe the volcano

Let us work on how to make a replica

for magma.

What do you think is found beneath the

volcano? Hot liquid rocks are found beneath the
earth’s surface.

What do you call the hot liquid that

exist beneath the Earths’ surface? The hot liquid is called magma.

Where do magma accumulate? It accumulates at the center.

What keeps them moving? The tremendous pressure and hot
What makes the magma move towards temperature make magma move.
the surface of the Earth?

Where will it pass?

What happens when magma reaches

the surface? It becomes a lava

Here are the parts of a volcano.

What can be seen during eruption?

During eruption, smoke and gasses are
released.
There is a mudflow of lava.
If you were living in a place near an
active volcano, what would you feel?
 What are the preventive measures that
we can do in case of volcanic eruptions
in the vicinity? Evacuate if necessary.
Stay indoors.
Prepare emergency materials like food,
water and flashlights.
Be alert.
IV. GENERALIZATION
A volcano is a land form on the
surface of the earth where molten
rocks pass to reach the surface.

Magma Chambers is a reservoir of

magma

A vent is a passage way of molten

rocks.

Crater is a depression at the tip of a

volcano.

C. Practice
Identify what is being described in the
flowing statements. Choose the letter
of your answer and write it before the
item number.

a. Volcano
b. Vent
c. Magma chamber
d. lava
e. crater

_____1. A land form on Earth’s

surface.
_____2. Hot molten rocks inside
the earth.
_____3. Molten rock that reach
the earth’s surface.
_____4. The opening of a volcano
through which molten
rocks erupts to the
surface.
_____5. The funnel-shaped pit at
the top opening of the
volcano.

V. Assignment
Draw a volcano and label its parts.
Draw it in a short coupon bond.
