Today and tomorrow we will be focusing on volcanoes. We will be looking at the types of volcanoes, the Ring of Fire, how volcanoes shape the Earth's surface, and are part of the rock cycle (We'll learn more about that next week.).
For the activities we will be doing, you will need to use the following websites:
1. Parts of a volcano.
2. Major volcanoes in the Ring of Fire.
3. Type of volcanoes. ( Once you complete the sheet, you will then model these volcanoes using your clay.)
AND Types of Volcanoes Diagrams!
4. Use this image, the process of elimination, and your thinking cap to label your Forming Igneous Rock diagram.
With recent activity at Mount St. Helens in Washington, you can watch a great NOVA documentary about its last eruption below.
