Volcanic eruption

In our Year 4 Geography lessons, we have been learning all about volcanoes, how they are formed and the physical Geography around them. We had some fantastic volcano models come into school and got very excited about creating our own volcanic eruptions. With a little help from our Science learning on states of matter, we put our knowledge to the test (with a little help from some carbonated drinks and mentos) to create our own erupting volcano. 

We have also been following the news about the recent Tonga eruption caught on satellites. If you haven't had a chance to see it for yourself: https://www.bbc.co.uk/newsround/60009509

Keep and eye out on your google classroom for the chance to make your own erupting volcano at home with your adults.
