Introduction
In this project you will find all the diffrent types of volcanos, learn to identify them, and finally locate them on a map to put up in the class room.
Task
1. find all the diffrent types of volcanos
2. find out diffrent things that cause them and how you can identify them
3. locate diffrent volcanos of each type around the world and put them on a map
Process
follow this link to find all the kinds of volcanos http://www.zmescience.com/other/science-abc/types-of-volcano/
- take notes on diffrent identifying features and causes of the volcanos on this page this should include what caused the type of volcano to form
prepare a paper for each individual volcano type that has the info for it on it.
find the location of two volcanos for each type using this link http://volcano.oregonstate.edu/oldroot/volcanoes/alpha.html
using there longetutde and latitude find them on a map or google earth and have this printed out for class
Evaluation
| above average (3) | Average (2) | Below average (1) | |
| grammer | no spelling or punctuation errors | 1-4 spelling or punctuaion errors | 5 or more punctioation errors |
| instructions |
student followed all instructions and used links provided to get info. |
Student didnt followed all instructions but still used links provided |
Student did not follow all instructions and did not use the links provivded |
| volcano types | student found all three types of volcano | Student found two of the three types | student found one or no types of volcano |
| discriptions |
Student has very detailed discription covers all signs a causes of each volcano |
Students discrition is still detailed but may not include some discriptions and causes |
student gave little to no details about volcano and didnt give any causes for them |
| map | map included 6 total volcanos and each volcano and they are correctly identified | map included 5-3 volcanos and at least 3 are identified correctly | map has 3 or less volcanos found |
Conclusion
by the end of this project I hope that use as the student will be able to identify diffrent types of volcanos do to their physical features and know what kind of techtonic forces caused the volcano
