News Flash: Volcanoes Erupt in Picayune!!!

Today our class finished a thematic unit on volcanoes. We learned that almost all of the earth's surface was created as a result of erupting volcanoes. We also learned that there are over 1,500 known volcanoes throughout the world and that there is one in Jackson, Mississippi!

As a part of our study on volcanoes, we made model volcanoes out of clay, plastic milk bottles and paint. Today during science class we used baking soda and vinegar to make them erupt!!!
