Duration: 30 minutes
Cognitive: Analyze and explain the different factors influencing volcanic eruptions.
Affective: Develop an appreciation for the complexities of volcanic activity and its
impact on the environment and human lives.
Psychomotor: Demonstrate understanding by creating a visual representation of the
factors affecting volcanic eruptions.
Materials:
Procedure:
Engage (5 minutes):
1. Begin the lesson by showing striking images or videos of volcanic eruptions to capture
students' attention and stimulate curiosity.
2. Ask students to share their initial thoughts and observations about what they see.
3. Introduce the concept of motivation by asking probing questions such as, "What
motivates volcanoes to erupt?" or "Why do you think volcanic eruptions occur?"
Establishing Purpose (3 minutes): 4. Clearly state the objectives of the lesson and how
understanding the factors influencing volcanic eruptions will deepen their knowledge of
geology and natural disasters.
5. Provide an overview of the 7Es framework and how it will guide their learning
throughout the lesson.
Explore (5 minutes): 6. Facilitate a class discussion to explore the various factors affecting
volcanic eruptions, such as:
Types of magma
Gas content
Explain (5 minutes): 7. Present key concepts and explanations for each factor discussed
during the exploration phase.
8. Use visual aids and diagrams to enhance understanding and clarify complex concepts.
Elaborate (7 minutes): 9. Divide students into small groups and assign each group one factor
affecting volcanic eruptions.
10. Instruct each group to brainstorm and discuss real-life examples or case studies that
demonstrate the impact of their assigned factor on volcanic activity.
11. Groups should then prepare a brief presentation to share their findings with the class.
Evaluate (5 minutes): 12. Conduct a brief quiz or knowledge check to assess students'
understanding of the factors influencing volcanic eruptions.
13. Have students write down one thing they learned from the lesson on an index card.
14. Collect the index cards as a formative assessment to gauge individual comprehension
and reflection.
Conclusion (2 minutes): 15. Recap the main points covered in the lesson and emphasize the
importance of understanding these factors in the study of geology.
16. Encourage students to continue exploring the topic further on their own and to stay
curious about the natural world around them.
Closure: 17. Thank students for their participation and engagement in the lesson.
18. Remind students of any upcoming assignments or readings related to the topic of
volcanic eruptions.
Watch a documentary or video series on famous volcanic eruptions and analyze the
factors involved.
Conduct a hands-on experiment demonstrating the effects of different types of magma
and gas content on volcanic eruptions.
Research and discuss current volcanic activity around the world, highlighting how the
factors discussed in class apply to real-life situations.
