• Talk Partners with
whiteboards:
• Take it in turns one
word or phrase on
volcanoes. (Don’t worry
about spellings)
• How many can you
think of?
• How many did you get
out of possible 20?
• Any you are particular
proud of remembering?
• Making a Volcanic Eruption
• You will need:
• 2 litre bottle of soda or cola
• 1 roll of mints
What helps make explosive eruptions?
• Explain to your Talk Partner or
group why the bottled
exploded.
• Maybe a diagram would help?
• Bubbles

Danger to People, Places and Things
• Explosive: Pyroclastic Flow
• Flows sweeping away buildings
Fast flowing rocks!
Bent bars of a broken house.
Which way did the flow go?
• Explosive: Burial
• Flows burying buildings
• Explosive: Burns
• Hot flows burning trees and buildings.
• Explosive: Lahars
• Fast flowing water and rock
• Explosive: Ash Fall
• Ash falling from eruption

• Effusive: Lava Flows

• Noxious Gas
• Magma loses bubbles
• Gas leaks into the air
• Earthquakes
• Magma pushes on crust
• Shakes and breaks buildings and roads
• What can we do to help people who live
near active volcanoes?
• As a Volcanologist, you have been asked to
give advice for a new education leaflet for
islanders who live close to a volcano that
you have not visited before. How could you
go about answering the question?
What can we do to help people
who live near active volcanoes?
Mt. St. Helens
1. Look and Learn
2. Watch Active Volcanoes
3. Escape Plans
4. Find out why people live near volcanoes
5. Teach
