For Inquiry I am making a volcano with paper mache and chicken wire and i am working with Tyson. But were not just gonna make it we are going to make it erupt. Our questions were how does a volcano erupt? how does a volcano form? and what is lava made of? We were going to do a card board volcano but we decided to do a chicken wire one.
3 Interesting facts that I have learnt
When enough magma builds up in the magma chamber so it forces its way up to the surface and erupts.
On land, volcanoes form when one tectonic plate moves under another.
Lava and magma that has erupted onto the Earth's surface is visually controlled as the molten rock flows downhill, lava exposed to the air cools to a deep black color, while the molten rock beneath glows bright orange.
