How does volcanism work and can I show others the process? By: Ian

What I Know

Questions I want to know

How will I find this out 

1. Volcano's erupt because of cracks in the earth
2. Volcano's are very powerful when they erupt
3. They can take out a whole city 
4. They have lava and magma in them
5. Volcano's are made out of rocks, stone, and sometimes dirt
6. Sometimes volcanoes can be a mountain but then turn into a volcano 
   

1. What happens to the volcano after it erupt?
2. What is the most active volcano?
3. What are volcanic rocks?
4. How do you know when a volcano is going to explode?
5. How many volcano are in the world in 2018?
6. What a sign a volcano is not going to erupt?
7. What is the difference between geysers and volcanoes?
   
8. How do people get really close to volcanoes?
   

1. I Will use important websites that will help me understand my topic
2. I will use models to show how my topic works
3.  I will use other information I know and put it with the information I learn
4. I will use google docs to record my facts and what I learn from my topic

What I Learned

1. Volcanoes are made when plates or destructive boundaries are pulled together or torn apart (main  way a volcano erupts)
2. All volcanoes have the same key structures
3. Volcanoes have vents which are what the the lava comes out of, there are usually two vents for the lava to come out of
4. Eruptions happen when pressure forces magma from the magma chamber through the main vent, up to the crater.
5. Scientists believe that volcanoes formed are first atmosphere by spewing water dioxide, and Nitrogen and hydrogen peroxide into the air
6. Not all volcanoes are are mountains, some are plateaus and bulging dome shaped.
   

Actions I will take 

1. I will teach others about what I learned and the knowledge I have on volcanoes
2. If people ever ask me about volcanoes I will help them out with what they want to know
3. I can keep learning more about volcanoes and be very good at explaining them

Questions I still want to know

1. How many ways can a volcano erupt?
2. Does the name volcano based off someone or how something exploded?
3. Can volcanoes explode in different ways if so how many ways?
4. are you able to cause a eruption man made real volcano?
5. Does the color or what is in the volcano change the way it erupts?
6. Why don't earthquakes cause volcanoes to erupt?

Reflection,

I really liked this project and definitely learned a lot about the process of volcanoes erupting. The most fun I had with this project was learning about the lava and magma in the volcano and out of it. It was really fun because the lava was really cool and the eruption were so amazing how they erupted. The easiest part of this was probably finding facts about what the volcano looks like and what is inside it. I learned a lot about the cycle, way more then I thought I would and I think I will have a fun time explaining what I learned to others. I felt like I learned the amount I wanted for this project and did a great job finding information.
