IV. PROCEDURES
Let the learners describe the factor that causes volcanic eruption
A. Reviewing previous lesson or Say: The high temperature inside the volcano may activate the formation of a gas
presenting the new lesson in volcanic eruption that may cause harmful effect to humankind. Why volcanoes
(2 mins.) continuously erupt? What will happen to the crater of the volcano?
elicit Introduce the new lesson (Let the learners read the objective of the new lesson).
Conduct a pre-test of the new lesson.

B. Establishing a purpose for the -Show to the learners a picture of different active volcanoes.
lesson 1. What can you say about the cone of a volcano?
(1 min.) 2. What happen to the landforms after eruption?
Engage 3. Do you have any idea of our new lesson today?

C. Presenting examples/ instances of Group the learners into 5.

the new lesson Group 1- discuss the structure of volcano after eruption.
Explore Group 2- Illustrate the external parts of a volcano.

MAGMA AND ITS COMPOSITION
Magma is the molten rock which lies underneath volcanoes. It is formed at
destructive plate boundaries and is rich in silicate. These are products of crustal
rocks (which are richer in silica than the rock of the mantle).
Crystal Content
Some magmas begin to crystallize as they reach the surface. High temperature
minerals are formed as magma slowly cools down followed by low temperature
minerals. Magma always contains crystals of high temperature.
Viscosity
The magma’s silica content affects its viscosity, the resistance of the fluid to flow.
Low viscosity magma has low silica content and is composed mostly of basalt.
While magma with rhyolite is viscous or high in viscosity due to its high silica
content. Temperature also affects the viscosity of the magma. Magma with high
temperatures have low viscosity while magma with low temperatures have high
viscosity.
Temperature
Temperature of magma reflects the melting points of their mineral components.
Magmas formed by partial melting of mantle rocks are much hotter over 1200 ⁰C
for some basalts. Rhyolites that reached the surface have temperature of less
than 900⁰C, and have a much higher viscosity.
Volatile Content
Magma contains small amounts of dissolved gas (water vapor, Carbon dioxide,
etc.) which is released as pressure is removed. Magmas formed by melting of
mantle rocks have generally low volatile contents, but those formed by partial
melting of crustal rocks are often volatile-rich. The degree of concentrations of
different volcanic gases are different from one volcano to the other. Water vapor
is the most abundant volcanic gas, followed by carbon dioxide and sulfur dioxide.
There are other volcanic gases such as hydrogen sulfide, hydrogen chloride, and
hydrogen fluoride. Trace gases are also found in volcanic emissions and these
are: hydrogen, carbon monoxide, and volatile metal chloride. The movement of
this volatile content is affected by the viscosity of the magma. As the gas
continues to precipitate from the high viscosity magma, the bubbles will be
prevented from rapidly breaking out resulting to the increase in pressure on the
magma column. This causes the volcano to erupt explosively.
CLASSIFICATIONS OF MAGMA
Magma can be classified into basaltic or mafic, intermediate or andesitic and
granitic or felsic.
Based on the activity discussed, how can you determine the nature of
eruption in a particular volcano?
What are the possible eruptions than can create one or more craters in a
volcano?
The explosive eruption of a volcano affects the land formation. Do you think
movement of land surface during eruption may cause deformation?
G. Making generalizations and
abstractions about the lesson Do you think explosive eruptions can cause deformation of land surface and can
(3 mins) produce another mountain?

H. Evaluating learning ACTIVITY 1: TRUE or FALSE

(8 mins)
Write TRUE if the statement is correct and FALSE if the statement is incorrect and
rewrite the statement to make it correct. Write your answer on a separate sheet of
paper.
_____ 1. Magma is an extremely hot fluid or semi fluid materials found under the
Earth surface.
_____ 2. Viscosity refers to the materials’ resistance to flow. The more viscous the
material, the lesser is the resistance to flow.
_____ 3. Basaltic to andesitic magma is non-explosive while andesitic to rhyolitic
magma is explosive.
_____ 4. Magma with high temperature has high viscosity, while magma with low
temperature has low viscosity.
_____ 5. Composition, temperature, and pressure are the factors that contribute to
the formation of magma.
