Description

Immerse your students in the fascinating world of volcanoes and natural disasters with this STEM Pop-Up Card Activity! Bonus: it makes a great Father's Day Card!

This hands-on project offers an engaging way to explore the dynamics of volcanic activity while reinforcing key concepts in earth science. Students have the opportunity to construct and label their own 3D volcano, fostering both tactile learning and visual comprehension. Whether incorporated into interactive science notebooks or utilized as an educational gift, this activity provides a memorable learning experience on volcanic landforms. It can be completed in just one class period.

Included in this comprehensive package are printable files for creating the 3D volcano, along with simple step-by-step instructions and a helpful video tutorial. Students will learn to identify and label essential parts of the volcano, including the ash cloud, crater, lava, magma chamber, and more. With additional instructions for conducting a volcanic eruption experiment using baking soda and vinegar, students can witness the eruptive process firsthand, deepening their understanding of volcanic phenomena.

Versatile in its application as a volcano craft, this activity can be integrated into various educational contexts, from earth science units to STEM or STEAM crafts, Earth Day activities, and even holiday-themed cards for occasions like Valentine's Day or Mother's Day.

Whether utilized in traditional classrooms or adapted for distance learning or homeschoolers, this volcanism resource offers flexibility and accessibility for educators and students alike.

Spark curiosity and exploration in your classroom with Volcanoes Natural Disasters Earth Science Activity STEM Pop-Up Card and ignite a passion for scientific discovery that extends beyond the classroom walls.

What's Included?

  • 3D Volcano Printable Files
  • Simple (3-step) instructions for making the volcano craft PLUS a link to watch a video showing how to make it
  • Instructions for labeling the parts of the volcano: ash cloud, crater, lava, magma, magma chamber, pipe or conduit, vent, and side vent.
  • Parts of the Volcano Diagram
  • Answer Key

Standards

to see state-specific standards (only available in the US).
NGSSMS-ESS2-3
Analyze and interpret data on the distribution of fossils and rocks, continental shapes, and seafloor structures to provide evidence of the past plate motions. Examples of data include similarities of rock and fossil types on different continents, the shapes of the continents (including continental shelves), and the locations of ocean structures (such as ridges, fracture zones, and trenches). Paleomagnetic anomalies in oceanic and continental crust are not assessed.
NGSSHS-ESS2-1
Develop a model to illustrate how Earth’s internal and surface processes operate at different spatial and temporal scales to form continental and ocean-floor features. Emphasis is on how the appearance of land features (such as mountains, valleys, and plateaus) and sea-floor features (such as trenches, ridges, and seamounts) are a result of both constructive forces (such as volcanism, tectonic uplift, and orogeny) and destructive mechanisms (such as weathering, mass wasting, and coastal erosion). Assessment does not include memorization of the details of the formation of specific geographic features of Earth’s surface.
NGSSMS-ESS2-2
Construct an explanation based on evidence for how geoscience processes have changed Earth’s surface at varying time and spatial scales. Emphasis is on how processes change Earth’s surface at time and spatial scales that can be large (such as slow plate motions or the uplift of large mountain ranges) or small (such as rapid landslides or microscopic geochemical reactions), and how many geoscience processes (such as earthquakes, volcanoes, and meteor impacts) usually behave gradually but are punctuated by catastrophic events. Examples of geoscience processes include surface weathering and deposition by the movements of water, ice, and wind. Emphasis is on geoscience processes that shape local geographic features, where appropriate.
NGSSMS-ESS2-1
Develop a model to describe the cycling of Earth’s materials and the flow of energy that drives this process. Emphasis is on the processes of melting, crystallization, weathering, deformation, and sedimentation, which act together to form minerals and rocks through the cycling of Earth’s materials. Assessment does not include the identification and naming of minerals.
