Objective: To design and construct accurate and creative miniature models representing the
Shield volcano, demonstrating an understanding of the characteristics, structure, and eruption
styles.
Structure: Broad, gently sloping sides formed from runny, fast-flowing lava.
Materials:
Recycled cardboard or plastic
Clay
Markers, or colored paper
Steps:
1. Start with a wide, flat base using black or brown clay.
2. Shape a low, dome-like mound—the height should be much smaller than the width.
3. Use thin layers of red/orange clay to represent flowing lava spreading out from the central
vent.
4. Create a small crater at the summit.
5. Add lava flow lines that gently slope outward from the top.
6. Label: Crater, lava flow, and shield structure.

Objective: To design and construct accurate and creative miniature models representing the
cinder-cone volcano, demonstrating an understanding of the characteristics, structure, and
eruption styles.
Structure: Small, steep-sloped cone made mostly of loose volcanic fragments (cinders, ash).
Materials:
Recycled cardboard or plastic
Clay
Markers, or colored paper
Steps:
1. Make a circular base using dark brown or gray clay.
2. Build a short, steep cone using dark gray or black clay—the texture should look rough or
grainy to represent cinders and ash.
3. Form a wide central crater at the top.
4. Add scattered red or black clay dots or pieces around the base to simulate ejected materials.
5. Optional: Make the surface uneven or "crumbly" to show that it’s made of loose particles.
6. Label: Crater, cinders, ash deposit, steep slope

ANSWERS:
1. What type of volcano did your group build?
Our group built a composite volcano, also called a stratovolcano. This type of
volcano is known for its large, symmetrical shape and explosive eruptions.
2. Describe the shape and structure of this volcano.
A composite volcano has a tall, cone-shaped structure with steep sides. It is
made up of alternating layers of hardened lava, ash, and volcanic rocks. These
layers build up over time through repeated cycles of quiet lava flows and
explosive eruptions.
3. What types of eruptions are typical for this volcano?
Composite volcanoes typically have explosive eruptions due to the high viscosity
of magma (usually andesitic to rhyolite) and the high gas content. These
eruptions can produce pyroclastic flows, ash clouds, and lava domes, making
them very dangerous.
4. Give one real-life example of this volcano.
One well-known real-life example of a composite volcano is Mount Mayon in the
Philippines. It is famous for its nearly perfect cone shape and frequent,
sometimes hazardous eruptions.
5. What are the differences between your volcano type and the other
two?
Compared to a shield volcano, which is broad with gentle slopes and has quiet,
flowing lava eruptions, a composite volcano is steeper and more explosive.
Unlike cinder cone volcanoes, which are small, steep, and formed from
pyroclastic fragments, composite volcanoes are much larger, more complex, and
built up over a longer time with alternating lava and ash layers.

ANSWERS:
1. What type of volcano did your group build?
Our group built a shield volcano, which is known for its broad, wide base and
gently sloping sides. It forms mainly from low-viscosity lava that can flow long
distances.
2. Describe the shape and structure of this volcano.
A shield volcano has a dome-like shape with gentle slopes. It is built from layers
of basaltic lava flows that spread widely and stack over time, creating its low,
broad profile. This structure allows lava to travel far before cooling and
hardening.
3. What types of eruptions are typical for this volcano?
Shield volcanoes usually have quiet and non-explosive eruptions. The lava is very
fluid (low viscosity), allowing it to flow smoothly rather than erupt violently.
These eruptions can last a long time but are generally less dangerous than
explosive ones.
4. Give one real-life example of this volcano.
A real-life example of a shield volcano in the Philippines is Mount Kalatungan in
Bukidnon, Mindanao. Although not as famous, it is believed to have
characteristics of a shield volcano based on its broad structure and lava flow
type.
5. What are the differences between your volcano type and the other
two?
Compared to a composite volcano, which is tall, steep, and has violent eruptions
with alternating layers of lava and ash, a shield volcano is gentler in slope and
erupts calmly with fluid lava. In contrast to a cinder cone volcano, which is small
and steep with explosive eruptions made of loose fragments, a shield volcano is
much wider, longer-lasting, and formed mainly from flowing lava rather than
pyroclastic material.

ANSWERS:
1. What type of volcano did your group build?
Our group built a cinder cone volcano, which is the smallest type of volcano and
is formed mainly from volcanic fragments like cinders, ash, and rocks that are
ejected during eruptions.
2. Describe the shape and structure of this volcano.
A cinder cone volcano has a steep, cone-shaped hill with a crater at the top. It is
built from loose volcanic debris that piles up around a single vent. These
materials are usually not tightly packed, which makes the structure less stable
compared to other volcano types.
3. What types of eruptions are typical for this volcano?
Cinder cone volcanoes usually have short, explosive eruptions that throw out
lava fragments, ash, and gases. The lava is often thicker and gas-rich, causing it
to break apart into cinders and ash during eruption.
4. Give one real-life example of this volcano.
A real-life example of a cinder cone volcano in the Philippines is Smith Volcano,
also known as Mount Babuyan. It is located in the Babuyan Islands, north of
Luzon, and is considered a cinder cone due to its steep profile and eruption style.
5. What are the differences between your volcano type and the other
two?
Compared to a shield volcano, which is wide with gentle slopes and calm lava
flows, a cinder cone volcano is smaller and steeper, formed from loose materials.
Compared to a composite volcano, which is larger and made of alternating lava
and ash layers with powerful eruptions, a cinder cone is simpler, forms faster,
and usually erupts only once or a few times.
