Kesler Science Station Lab – Volcanoes
If you have never used my Kesler Science Station Labs before please download the FREE Start-Up pack from my TPT store. It will provide you with all of the signage and best practices in order to run the station labs in your classroom.
The large directions cards included in this file are intended to be read by the leader of the group once the students get to the station. The smaller task cards can be read by another group member.
I prefer that each student do their own lab write-up (included at the end of this file), so that they may use it for reference at a later date. The answer key is provided at the end of the document.
Lastly, if any of the internet resources no longer work for some reason please let me know via email at [email protected]. I cannot guarantee that all resources will be available, but I tried to choose ones that have been around for many years.
Kesler Science Station Lab – Volcanoes –Teacher Directions
Explore It! – I will spend much of my time at this station making sure the students are not wasting time. You will need the included cards and some cans of play-doh.
Illustrate It! – Normally this station would be an output station, but in this lab I chose to use it as an input station. You may want to setup computers for research.
Read It! – Print several different copies (I use 6) of the reading passage so that multiple students can read at different paces
Watch It! – The original YouTube link is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jRfEGvp6wDUNote that URL is case-sensitive for the Google Drive
Organize It! – The cards for this activity are attached near the end of this file. Print several sets and then just put them in the basket for kids to pull from. This is also a good one for later in the week to demonstrate mastery too! Students should be encouraged to do the Research and Explore station before attempting this one. I like to label the backs with set numbers because they will get mixed up.
Write It! – Students should be encouraged to do the Research and Explore station before attempting this one.
Research It! – The goo.gl link on the task card is case-sensitive. The original link is http://pbs.panda-prod.cdn.s3.amazonaws.com/media/assets/wgbh/ess05/ess05_int_volcanintro/01_Where.htm#
Assess It! – Students should be encouraged to do the Research and Explore station before attempting this one. If I grade anything I usually take a close look at the answers from this station.
It is recommended that you have completed at least two of the following stations before working at this station.-Read It!-Explore It!-Watch It!-Research It!
Answer each of the task card questions on the lab sheet in complete sentences.

Where would you least likely find a new volcano?
A. Mid-ocean ridgeB. “Hot spot” in HawaiiC. The great plains in the middle
of the U.S.D. Near a subduction zone in
Argentina
How do volcanoes form near a divergent boundary?
A. Magma fills in the gap where the plates move apart
B. Magma is created by a subduction zoneC. Magma breaks through the tectonic
plate above a “hot spot”D. Mountains erode away and create a
volcano
A _________________ is formed when one tectonic plate dives underneath another one.
Which statement can be concluded after reading the passage?
A. There are many volcanoes formed near plate boundaries.
B. Volcanoes are created by erosion and weathering.
C. A convergent boundary must be present to form a volcano.

Use the key to match the correct answers.
2. On your lab sheet, write down each of the volcano types along with the characteristics.
1. Take a minute to read through the names of each of the volcanoes and their characteristics.
2. On your lab sheet draw a picture of each of your models and label it.
1. Use the Play-Doh to make a a small model of each of the different types of volcanoes.
Simplest type of volcano, rarely rises above 1000 feet, typically has a bowl-shaped crater at the top, found in western North America
Some of the Earth’s grandest mountains, typically have steep sides and symmetrical cones, most have a crater and vent at the summit, made up of alternating layers of lava and ash
Built almost entirely by fluid lava flows, typically has a gentle slope, generally erupts slowly over a long period of time
Formed be small, bulbous masses of lava too thick to flow a great distance, lava piles around the vent, some domes form craggy knobs or spines over the volcanic vent
