Learning Competencies
At the end of the cycle, the students should be able to:
1. Differentiate active from inactive volcano
2. Identify and explain the external parts of a volcano
ELICIT Materials
Ask the students to describe the different characteristic of a Concept Map provided by the teacher
volcano
ENGAGE
Ask the students to cite all names of volcanoes they know Blackboard and Chalk
locally
EXPLORE

Activity 2: Volcanoes in the Philippines

Aim: Classify volcanoes as active or inactive

Materials: Philippine Map, colored pens

Procedure:
1. Using the Philippine map, plot the location of the
following volcanoes. Assign colors for the volcanoes.
Indicate this in the legend.

Guide Questions:
Q1. Are the volcanoes found in the same location?
Q2. Which of the volcanoes had the most number of
eruptions? Least number of eruptions? No record of
eruption?
Q3. How will you classify the volcanoes that have records of
eruption?
Q4. How will you classify volcanoes with no record of
eruption?
Q5. In your own words, differentiate an active volcano from
an inactive one?

EXPLAIN
Group Presentation: Output of the 5 groups
 Each group will post their word in the blackboard
 Let the students answer the questions in the activity
  Ask the students generate a conclusion from their
result
ELABORATE
Deepen the discussion by explaining the following facts to Video Presentation/ visual aids
students:
 There are several ways by which volcanoes can be
classified. PHIVOLCS have adapted a system where
the Philippine volcanoes as active or inactive
 Active volcanoes are those that have a record of
eruption within the last 600 years or those that
erupted 10,000 years ago based on analyses of
their materials.
 Inactive volcanoes, on the other hand, are those that
have not erupted for the last 10,000 years and their
physical form is being changed by agent of
weathering and erosion through formation of deep
and long gullies
 Extinct Volcanoes has not had an eruption for at
least 10,000 years and is not expected to erupt
again in a comparable time scale of the future.
 Lava may appear to be the primary material ejected
from a volcano, but this is not always the case.
Aside from lava, broken rocks, lava bombs, fine ash
and dust are also ejected
 The external parts of a volcano are:
1. Summit – the highest point of a hill, mountain,
volcanoes
2. Slope – an incline portion of ground
3. Base
EVALUATE
Direction: Quiz notebook, ballpen for the students
Answer the given questions wisely base on the discussions
1. Differentiate active from inactive volcano in your own
words.
2. Draw a volcano and identify the external parts of it.
3. Aside from lava what are the other materials are
being ejected by volcanoes during eruption? Give
atleast 4.
EXTEND
Make a simple reflection paper about the important of Bond paper, Ballpen
studying active and inactive volcanoes
