Volcano Flip Book
Purpose: To organize the information about the different types of volcanoes
to use as a study tool.
Materials:
 3 pieces of paper
 Stapler
 Colored pencils
 Pen
 Text book and notes
Instructions:
1. Create a flip book using three sheet of paper. (I will demonstrate this as
explained below)
- Measure and fold three sheets of paper hamburger style:
- Put the three folded sheets on top of each other and fold again on
the line, making a book
- Staple along the spine of the book three times:
Volcanoes
2. Label the sections as follows:
Page 1 (Cover Page)
Page 2
Page 3
Page 4
Page 5
Page 6 (Last Page)
Volcanoes
Divergent Boundary
Convergent Boundary – Ocean-Ocean
Convergent Boundary – Ocean-Continent
Hot Spot – Oceanic
Hot Spot – Continental
3. DRAW and COLOR the different types of volcano formation for each of
the sections. Use pages 195-197, pages 202-203, and your plate margin
worksheet from last chapter.
4. Include in EACH of the pages:
o LABEL the plates (oceanic, continental)
o LABEL the lithosphere and asthenosphere
o DRAW arrows indicating plate movement
o NAME the process involved in plate formation (increase in
temperature, decrease in pressure, increase in water)
o NAME the type of volcano formed (shield, composite, cindercone,
caldera)
o NAME the type of magma/ lava (Basaltic, Andesitic, Rhyolitic)
o Give at least one geographical location as an example.
5. For the INDIVIDUAL pages label the following:
