Mrs Edmonds misses you all so very much!


So today I have set a volcano challenge just in case you wanted to do something a little bit different.
On our slide deck we have the last slide, slide 14 it is "Free Choice".  If you click on the National Geographic KIDS box it will take you to their website.  Scroll down till you see Volcano facts!
Ask mum or dad to help you read the interesting information and write down your answers to the 5 questions below.  You can either email me or we can check them over on Monday to see who got them right.


Volcano questions.

1. Volcano comes from the word 'Vulcan' who was Vulcan?


2. What are mantle plumes?


3.What does Active, Dormant and Extinct mean?

a. amount of volcanic activity?           b. they are dinosaur names.        c. they are country names.


4. What is the name of the largest volcano in the world and which country is it in?


5. Can you remember the name of the largest volcano in the solar system?

Write or type out your answers and send them to me at belindae@sunnyhills.school.nz

    Good morning Miss Edmonds. I love your volcano challenge. I'm going to find out the answers to all those questions as well so I can learn more about volcanoes. I wonder if anyone knows how many volcanoes there are in Auckland? Have a great day and a lovely weekend.

    Good morning Mrs Edmonds! I hope room 23 get up to some interesting activities today on the free choice slide. There are so many interesting facts about volcanoes. Did you know I have seen a volcano in action?! It was in Italy and the volcano was called Mount Stromboli. I was in a boat far away from the mountain but we still had ash falling down and settling on our boat! Very exciting!!
    Have a great weekend!

    A few Room 8 children have had a go at completing the volcano challenge! It looked like great fun...but an activity best done outside I think!! Have a great weekend. From Miss White
