Students were assigned a volcano and were required to research that specific volcano’s history as well as creating a 3- dimensional model of their assigned volcano.
Below is some of the information that students researched and learned about their volcano.

Name of Earth’s plate or plates that surround and have interacted with the volcano.

Each student did an amazing job on their research paper and a fantastic job on their Volcano models making me feel very proud of their work.
