Investigating Volcanoes
Jump to Comments
Today we made the three different kinds of volcanoes and learned a lot about volcano formation and where they are located around the world. I wish you could have seen the light of excitement in GB’s eyes as the volcanoes erupted; especially the stratovolcano. That was very impressive. In fact, he wouldn’t let me clean up until his dad gets home from work because he wants to show him what we did.
I put together a video of the whole thing. I hope you can hear some of GB’s excitement. Mine was pretty evident.

How neat!! I’ve never seen anything but a traditional volcano ‘explosion.’ Love yours! Where did you get the idea?

Very cool! I’m dying to know what you used to make those different eruptions.

And then there’s this great video of an underwater volcano erupting near Tonga: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fRU22t1BhNY
