d. Recalling of the Classroom Rules

But before we start to our new lesson, I will present to you
our rules during class hour.

Is it okay to you that we will having a rule during our science

time?

Okay, thank you!

classroom
Rule #3. Always
wear your smile

Reviewing the previous lesson

(Elicit- 5 minutes)

Do you still remember the lesson that was discuss last week? (Students are
Who can still remember? raising their hand)

Yes, James? Last week we

discuss about the

based on their
activity.
What are the three types of volcano based on their activity?
Sir
Yes jewel

Establishing a purpose (motivation)
(ENGAGE-10 minutes)

Before we proceed, lets check your knowledge about

volcanoes using the statements below.

Activity: FACT or BLUFF (Answer varies)

(Everyone reads)
Direction: write the name of your crush if the statements is
TRUE then write your surname if the statement is FALSE.

____1. All volcano are cone-shape

____2. Volcanoes are found only on land

____3. A volcano has an opening at the top (or in some case,

on the side)

____4. Hot thick cloud of gas, molten rocks and ash come
out a volcano’s opening

____5. All volcanoes erupt violently

____6. If the volcano does not produce lava, it is not

dangerous.

____7. Volcanoes are describe according to their shape and

type of eruption.

____8. A volcanic eruption happens when there is an

earthquake beneath the earth’s crust.

____9. The pressure of the dissolve gas building up in the

magma causes a volcanic eruption.

____10. Volcanoes only erupt straight up through the top

vent and not on the sides.
Class! Did you enjoy our Activity?

Great! Yes sir

For our new lesson this will be our objectives.

Please read everyone.

At the end of the

lesson, the learners
should be able to:

a) define volcanic
eruption
b) identify factors
that affect the
viscosity of
magma
c) describe the
types of
volcanic
eruption

(Discussing new concepts and practicing new skills number

1)
(Explore-15 minutes)

Before we proceed in our discussion let us first watch a video (answer may vary
about the types of volcanic eruption. And later we will be based on their
having a group activity. knowledge)

Since you have an idea about the types of eruption and the
factors affecting viscosity of magma. Lets have a group
activity.

I will divide you into three groups and each group will
receive a task regarding in our topic today.

Direction: Fill in the table below. Some examples are

given.

 Developing mastery leads to Assessment
(Explain- 15 minutes) (students raising their
hands)
Volcanic eruption happens when magma, gases
and other molten materials are discharged from the
opening. Since volcanic eruptions are caused by
magma expelled onto the earth's surface, we must
first identify the factors that affect the viscosity of the
magma.

There are some factor affecting the viscosity of

magma, one of the factor is the chemical (students raising their
composition. hands)

Class! How the chemical composition affects the sir

viscosity of magma?

Magma with high silica

Yes clark. content is more viscous
than those with low silica
content.

Very good!
Magma with high silica content is more viscous than
those with low silica content. It is too viscous so it
does not travel far, and tends to break up as it flows.
The magma that contains less silica is relatively fluid,
so it travels far before solidifying. magma with less
silica content

Sir
How about the amount of gases dissolve?
When magma has high
Yes john amount of gas, magma
with low amount of gas
lava flow is less viscous
and increases its ability to
flow.

Correct!
When magma has high amount of gas (mainly water
vapor), magma with low amount of gas lava flow is
less viscous and increases its ability to flow. Magma
has high viscosity when it columnar dome has low
amount of gas as it rises. The ability of the lava to
flow decreases, so it piles up at a vent resulting into a
columnar or a dome.

Additionally, temperature also affects the viscosity of

magma. The higher the temperature of magma, the
lower is its viscosity. As lava flows, it travels far
before it begins to magma with high temperature
harden. On the other hand, if the temperature of
magma islower, the higher is its viscosity so the lava
does not travel far.

Volcanoes erupt differently and not all of them are

violent. Magma can explode from the vent, or it can
flow out of the volcano. In addition to the top vent,
magma and gas may escape through cracks and weak
areas on the sides of the volcano.

Here are some types of volcanic eruption

First is the Phreatic or hydrothermal

(students raising their

hands)

Who can describe the type of explosion of phreatic

eruption? Sir

Yes ace is a steam-blast small

eruption as hot rocks heat
the ground water or
surface water. This
eruption tears down
surrounding rocks and can
produce ash columns, but
do not include new
magma.
Very good!

Next is the hawaiian

Who can describe the type of explosion of hawaiian

eruption?

Yes jake Sir

Their eruptions are non-

explosive eruptions of
gusher-like lava fountains
Very good that generate red-hot lava
rivers of very fluid basaltic
Next is the Strombolian lavas.

Who can describe the type of explosion of

strombolian eruption?

Yes Jeat
Sir

Strombolian eruptions
Excellent! are moderately explosive
eruptions of basaltic
Next is the Vulcanian magma with moderate gas
content.
Who can describe the type of explosion of Vulcanian
eruption?

Yes trisha

Sir

moderately explosive but

intermittent, producing
Very good! moderate ash columns.
These eruptions are more
Another type of volcanic eruption is the Pelean explosive than
Strombolian.

Sir

explosive outbursts that

generate pyroclastic flows,
Who can describe the type of explosion of pelean
dense mixtures of hot
eruption?
volcanic fragments and gas
Yes may

Very good May

And lastly is the Plinian

 Sir

It is extremely explosive
eruptions, it produce ash
columns that extend many
tens of miles into the
stratosphere and that
spread out into an
umbrella shape.
Who can describe the type of explosion of plinian
eruption?

Yes shane Sir

Phreatic, hawaiian,
strombolian, vulcanian,
pelean, and plinian.

Very good!

Again class what are the types of volcanic eruption?

No sir/yes sir
Yes Celestine

Very good!

Give yourself a round of applause

Class! Do you have any question or clarifications?

Now that you have a deeper understanding of

volcanoes, I have a question for you.
Finding practical applications of concepts and skills
in daily living
(Elaborate- 10 minutes)

What do you think are the advantages of volcanic

eruption?
Sir

Yes jeat Volcanic ash produces very

fertile soil, which is ideal
for farming.
