Low prep and easy to follow – this lab is sure to be a hit in your classroom!
Students will learn, eat, and use academic writing to apply knowledge about shield, composite (strato), and cinder cone volcanoes. This editable and edible CER 4-page volcanoes lab uses affordable and easily accessible supplies. Each group of 2-3 students will need 1 cookie, 1 chip, 1 kiss, and a metric ruler to measure dimensions in millimeters.

⭐ Volcanoes Lab Overview ⭐

  • Students will answer three pre-lab questions (using included reference sheet for support).
  • Students will then measure the dimensions of each food using a metric ruler, and then claim what food represents each type of volcano. Students will back up their claims with reasons and evidence.
  • Students will then draw volcanoes to scale.
  • As a culminating activity, students will work on their own to complete a final short CER activity based on a question prompt of if volcanoes are helpful or harmful to society and the environment (editable and differentiated rubrics included). Sometimes I assign this last part, sometimes I do not if we are low on time, and sometimes I offer it as extra credit. This is editable as well!

Downloads

How do I find my downloads?

At the top of the page click MY ACCOUNT, then click DOWNLOADS in the list on the left. A link to all of your downloads can be found there.

You will also receive an automated email after each purchase with a link to every resource, so check your inbox and your spam or junk folder. Be sure to save your purchases to your hard drive and consider backing them up.

My download has a file-path error and will not open!

This is usually a character-length problem that happens when files sit in the Downloads folder on a PC. That folder is buried so deep on the computer that it can cause errors.

Try saving the file to My Documents instead of Downloads and see if that helps. If you are still stuck, email me and I will help you sort it out.

What types of resources do you sell?

Many resources come in both printable (PDF) and digital Google Slides™ formats. Some use Boom Learning for Boom Cards. Unless noted otherwise, please consider products non-editable.

Please read the product description to see exactly what file types you are purchasing.

We also accept purchase orders from schools, districts, and other educational institutions. See the Purchase Orders section for details. We do not accept personal checks or money orders outside of the purchase order process.

What is your refund policy?

Because we sell digital downloads, all sales are final and no refunds or exchanges are available.

If you are unsure whether a resource is right for your students, please email me before purchasing and I will gladly answer any questions.

I want to purchase multiple licenses. How does that work?

Each teacher license provides access for one teacher. Add the number of licenses you need to your cart and check out as normal.

Then email me with your order number and the name and email address of each additional teacher, and I will set up an account and access for each of them.

Am I responsible for sales tax?

Sales tax is applied where required by law, based on your location.

If your school or district is tax exempt, please email me a copy of your exemption certificate before purchasing so I can adjust your order.
