Long and Short Term Effects of Volcanism

Sounds pretty impressive huh?  We read section B 3.3 in the book today about effects that volcanoes have on Earth as well as humans and building and such.  Once we completed that, we completed a reading worksheet about the reading.  Remember....there is a TEST on Friday!!  We will review tomorrow and then the rest is on you to study!!

Viscosity! What is it?

Today in class we were able to FINALLY do our viscosity labs.  One measured the "lava" ability to flow downhill while the other lab measured the eruption.  Pictures to come!  Both lab sheets are below.  You can do this at home because you should have all the supplies!  Food coloring is NOT necessary.  If you want to take pictures and/or video that'd be cool!

I Fell Into a Burning Ring of Fire.....

I went down, down, down and the flames got higher.  Actually, I didn't.  But we did watch the video about the Ring of Fire.  Along with the video, there was a worksheet that you were to answer questions as the video played. Both the video and the worksheet are below.
