Learners describe the properties of volcanoes, and explain why volcanoes are important to the environment.

Students make a volcano out of a soda bottle, flower, salt, oil, and more. In this volcanoes lesson plan, students also read about volcanoes.

Students construct a model of a volcano. They read "NASA Facts Atmospheric Aerosols" and discuss the impacts of volcanic eruptions. They write informative essays about how aerosols impact the Earth.

In this volcano worksheet, learners construct the three types of volcanoes using two colors of play dough. They answer questions about their models and answer specific questions about each type of volcano.

Students develop a basic understanding of volcanoes. They watch a PowerPoint Presentation which introduces three types of volcanoes: shield volcanoes, cinder cones, and composite volcanoes.

Students create a volcano replica. In this volcano lesson plan, students construct an erupting volcano from a list of materials and instructions. Students read or listen to volcano stories during the eruption.

Students build a salt dough volcano. They the salt dough using the following ingredients: flour, salt, and water. Students mix flour and salt in a container and add water and mix until the dough is smooth. They then make the volcano....

In this volcano worksheet, learners identify various aspects of volcanoes including identifying the types of volcano, the types of lava, the types of eruption, the locations of the volcanoes and the slopes of the volcanoes.

In this volcano learning exercise, students match the types of volcanoes and the types of magma and lava with their definitions. They are given the words in boxes and the definitions in a boxes.

Students compare and contrast the volcanoes of Earth and Mars, and examine specific volcanoes on Mars. They model the processes that create cone and shield volcanoes, and measure the slope angles of cone and shield volcanoes.

Students explore Tanzania. In this geography skills lesson plan, students read This is Tanzania by Richard Lupinsky, Jr. and discuss the impact that volcanoes have had on the nation. Students analyze the imagery in Lupinsky's piece and...

Students study the Mount St. Helens eruption and how it occurred.  In this experimental lesson students complete a lab that shows the eruption of Mount St. Helens.

Students sketch cones and identify its properties. In this geometry instructional activity, students calculate the surface area and volume of each three dimensional shape. they define and sketch prisms, pyramids and cylinders.

In this word search activity, students are given 15 challenging words related to volcanoes. Students locate these words in a puzzle which is shaped to resemble an exploding volcano.

In this volcano worksheet, students are given three pictures of three different types of volcanoes. They are to match the names of each with their pictures.

Students engage in a lesson plan in which volcanoes be explored and examined. After watching a video, students create volcanoes out of clay.

Young scholars build a volcano model on tag board. They add lava and ash layers simulating the process that builds a real strato volcano cone.

Pupils investigate how particle size affects the angle of a volcano's slope.

In this volcanoes instructional activity, students unscramble the three types of volcanoes given eighteen boxes with letters that make up the words cinder cone, shield and composite

In this volcano worksheet, middle schoolers complete 15 fill in the blank questions on the basics of volcano structure and volcano trivia.

Unlike a volcano, the lesson won't blow up in your face. Young mathematicians use dried beans to discover the relationship between the volumes of cones and cylinders and to write a formula for the volume of a cone. They then research...

For this volcano worksheet, students fill in a chart with sketches of the three causes of volcanoes, the type of lava from each, a description and any features of each and examples of each.

Students compile information on volcanic activity at Mount St. Helens.  In this earth science lesson, students use the information they gathered on Mount St. Helens to answer questions and create charts in Excel.  Then students...

In this science activity, students look for the words in the puzzle that are related to the theme of the word search. Spelling skills are worked on.
