Instruction: Label the parts of Volcano. Do this in a clean sheet of paper.

 EXPLAIN

Types of Volcanoes
A volcano is a land-form, a mountain, where molten rocks erupt
through the surface of the planet. The volcano mountain opens
downwards to a pool of molten rocks below the surface of the earth.
Cinder cones

Cinder cones are circular or

oval cones made up of small
fragments of lava from a single
vent that have been blown up.
Cinder cones result from
eruptions of mostly small
pieces of scoria and
pyroclastics that build up
around the vent.
 Composite Volcano

Composite volcanoes are

steep-sided volcanoes
composed of many layers
of volcanic rocks, usually
made from high-viscosity
lava, ash and rock debris.
 Shield volcano

Shield volcanoes are

volcanoes shaped like a bowl
or shield in the middle with
long gentle slopes made by
basaltic lava flows. These are
formed by the eruption of
low-viscosity lava that can
flow a great distance from a
vent.
 Dangers and benefits of
volcanic eruption

DANGERS OF VOLCANIC ERUPTION

•
Eruption cloud
Lahars
Lava flows
Pyroclastic flows
Poisonous gases
BENEFITS OF VOLCANIC ERUPTION

1. Fertile Soil
2. Geothermal energy
3. New land formation
4. Mineral Resources
5. Tourism
6. Climate influence
PRECAUTIONARY MEASURES BEFORE,
DURING AND AFTER VOLCANIC ERUPTION

Before a volcanic eruption

• Review your family preparedness plan.
• Establish a family communications plan.
• Assemble a disaster supply kit.
• Have a family evacuation plan in place
DURING VOLCANIC ERUPTION

Listen to a National Oceanic and

Atmospheric Administration weather radio
or TV for updated information.
• Be prepared to evacuate, and do so
immediately if necessary (See Disaster
Preparedness Series: Family Evacuation
Plan).
• Avoid areas downwind and river
valleys downstream from the volcano.
• Close all windows and doors, and bring
any pets or livestock into closed shelters.
Guide question:
1. Compare and contrast the different volcanoes in the
Philippines?
2. What are the advantages and dis advantages of volcanic
eruption?
3. What are the precautionary measures before, during,
and after volcanic eruption?
