After reading ‘The Pebble in My Pocket’ we carried out some independent research to find out more information about volcanoes, some of the most powerful forces shaping the Earth. This inspired us to Create our own volcanoes and watch them explode!  

We used plastic bottles and paper mache to create the structures then we created a simple chemical reaction so our volcanos erupted with bubbly, fizzy liquid. The vinegar reacted with the bicarbonate of soda making carbon dioxide gas form and the bubbles pushed the “lava” out the “volcano” creating a realistic explosion!

Well done 7 Blue!
