We have been learning all about mountains and volcanoes in learning journal over the past 2 weeks. This week, children have been focuing on how volcanoes form and the causes of a volcanic eruption.

We created our own volcanoes in groups and then completed an experiment which had a chemical reaction to cause an eruption that looked like flowing lava! 

We used a range of ingredients such as; water, food colouirng, washing up liquid, bicarbonate of soda and vingeger to make the reaction come to life!
