Endogenetic Processes
The learners demonstrate an understanding of:
1. the geologic processes that occur within the Earth
The learners shall be able to make a simple map showing places where
erosion and landslides may pose risks in the community.
The learners will be able to
1. explain why the Earths interior is hot (S11ES-IIb-c-23)
2. describe how magma is formed (S11ES-IIc-24)
At the end of the lesson, the learners will be able to
1. know the sources and significance of the Earth's internal heat.
2. understand and explain the requirements for magma generation.

2. Motivation: Class participation by asking questions about magma formation (5 minutes)
3. Instruction Delivery: Earths Internal Heat and Magma Formation with 1demo activity (50 minutes)

PROCEDURE
I. INTRODUCTION: (5 minutes)
Communicate learning objectives
1. Introduce the following learning objectives using the suggested
protocols (Verbatim, Own Words, Read-aloud)
a. I can identify the sources of the Earths internal heat and describe
the different processes responsible for the transfer of heat.
b. I can explain the different conditions required in the generation of
magma.
Review
Review the internal structure of the Earth - layering based on
physical and chemical properties.

- Mid-oceanic ridges: the rising magma in mantle convection cell brings
heat to the surface, transferring heat to the overlying rocks. The
transfer of heat due to convection is accompanied by a decrease in
pressure or "decompression" associated with the spreading of the
lithospheric plates. These two work in tandem promoting the partial melting
of rocks along the spreading center.
