Mrs Scott helped is to make a volcano! Learning about earths structure and how mointains are made we had some questions about what a volcano was. We found out that the stuff that comes out of the top is hot liquid rock called magma. When the lava slides down the mountain it causes erosion. Trees and houses at the bottom of the mountain is burnt and wood becomes petrified. Magma comes from under the earths crust in a place called the mantle. Wow what a lot of investigating!
