Vocabulary Fill-In

This worksheet uses a word bank to help students complete scientific sentences about volcanic processes and terminology. Learners fill in blanks with terms such as magma, lava, crater, eruption, fissure, vent, ash, and pyroclastic flow. The activity reinforces precise vocabulary use and comprehension of geological processes. By reading each sentence carefully, students apply contextual understanding to choose the correct word. This builds scientific literacy and prepares students for more advanced Earth science concepts. A challenge question promotes thinking about why accurate vocabulary matters when warning communities about volcanic hazards.
