Just a reminder, that you're supposed to be checking Mrs. Ball's blog for your science assignments. I had been offering clarification on my blog, but we are supposed to streamline. Email me if you have questions, or if you just want to say hi. I miss you!!!
This composite cone volcano (also called a stratovolcano) is located in Indonesia along the Ring of Fire (around the Pacific tectonic plate) and it erupted this morning! It was caught on video and put into slow motion! So cool! You can also see the volcanic lightning caused by electrical discharges- CLICK HERE if you want to read about volcanic lightning. CLICK HERE to go to youtube to watch the eruption video (or watch below). I wanted to share this opportunity with you, but it is COMPLETELY OPTIONAL! I thought it was a cool idea, and I'm very competitive so I wanted y'all to enter so I can brag on you. ;)
