Erupting volcanoes in year 3!

To end our unit of work on island life, we erupted some volcanoes in year 3! It's a wonderful way to finish a term of Geography focused work where we have learnt about four figure grid referencing, the water cycle, the features of a river, volcanoes, the countries of Europe and much, much more!

The children could eloquently describe what a volcano is and what causes it to erupt, using key geographic vocabulary. We then progressed to erupt them and it was so much fun! Even if Mr Cook did go home smelling of vinegar!

Volcanoes are so interesting, mine erupted and it looked just like lava! Aadhavan
