Students had an AWESOME time learning about the 3 types of volcanoes and researching their volcanoes! Students were responsible for building a REALISTIC model of their type of volcano they were researching. Students were assigned FAMOUS volcanoes from all around the world. Their job was to create a NEWSPAPER AD that described their REAL ESTATE property but all scientitifically described the volcano. It was quite interesting to see how the students balanced attracting potential REALTORS to getting the SCIENTIFIC information out.
COMING SOON!
- The best NEWSPAPER adds from each block
- Pictures of us ERUPTING volcanoes OUTSIDE (delayed DUE to rainy weather)
- Pictures of Top 10 Teacher’s Choice Volcanoes

Hello,
I have been having a look around at your blog and I think it is fantastic. I am passionate about teaching science myself, so I recognise it in others. It is great to see someone with shared interests doing such a fabulous job, well done!
If you run out of science ideas at any point, please feel free to drop by my site, http://www.captaincuriosity.net where there are a growing number of easy experiments for science in the classroom, plus some construction challenges which really encourage creative thinking and problem solving.
I’d be delighted to get some feedback from you if you have any comments or suggestions about how I could make the site more useful to teachers.
I look forward to seeing the updates to your blog.
Keep up the good work,
Bronwen

Hi Bronwen (beautiful name by the way)
Sorry..it took a while to get to you. Your comment got kicked to “spam” for some reason. Thanks for the wonderful compliments. Your site is awesome. I love that you share your information for folks. I think if we all shared teaching would not only be easier but we would have better results with students! Your site is awesome. I will definitely put it in my links for Teacher Resources!
