The Clovers have gone to great lengths at home in recent weeks to produce extremely impressive Volcano projects! Some people created presentations about this topic, some people drew diagrams and some people built their very own volcanoes. We learned so many interesting facts through our presentations, here are just some examples:
- When magma reaches the Earth's surface it then becomes known as lava.
-Mount Fuji is is fact three volcanoes combined- at the bottom is Komitake, which was surmounted by Ko Fuji (“Old Fuji”) and, finally, by the most recent, Shin Fuji (“New Fuji”).
-At any given moment there are approximately twenty volcanoes erupting around the world.
-Mount Vesuvius has over 17,000 years of recorded eruption history!
-The tallest volcano in our solar system is not actually on Earth! (challenge: can you find out where it is located?)
