Volcano Report from Room 4

Report on Volcanoes

Did you know volcanoes are one of my favourite things?

An eruption happens when the magma  from the earth's core rises up through a weakness in the earth's crust. 
There are lots of parts in a volcano. These things are like magma layers of the Earth's crust, layers of lava and ash, eruption clouds, crater, lava flowing down the side of the volcano, and the central vent.
Some volcanoes are active and some volcanoes are extinct. 
The most active volcano in New Zealand is White Island. Me and my family saw it when it was streaming up.
Did you know Lake Taupo was one of the biggest eruptions in the world? It was humongous and it happened 2000 years ago.

Volcanoes are really cool!
 I especially love the obsidian that is made when they erupt.

  2. This is Thomas's work on volcanoes.
    He has enjoyed working mostly offline today using the ministry pack, but he completed this report task on his chrome book.
