Newpath Learning Volcano 3-D Model Kit, 1 Teacher Guide and 5 Student Guides
Description
Models are powerful tools for teaching science as they provide useful simplifications of structures and processes, helping to make the unseen seen and the complex simple.
Using this hands-on model-making kit, your students will enjoy learning about volcanoes!
They’ll start by constructing their model using the colorful parts provided. They’ll then use their model to learn about the structure of a volcano and the different types of eruption. The unique model shows the volcano structure from both the outside and inside in cross section. Students can model the cone, vent, crater, magma chamber, magma, lava, volcanic bombs, ash cloud, pyroclastic flow and lahars. They will also learn about Hawaiian, Vulcanian, Vesuvian and Plinian eruptions.
The Model Making Kit includes enough materials for students to assemble up to 5 paper models working cooperatively. The comprehensive Teacher Resource Guide included provides illustrated readings, activities, key vocabulary and an assessment, along with teaching opportunities for students to Engage, Explore, Explain, Extend and Evaluate their understanding of the concepts presented.
