Today we had our technology expo. We had parents and other teachers join the classroom and look at everybody's display and listen to their oral presentation. Everyone had really good models and even though not everbody's model worked exactly the way they thought it would, we all agreed that this unit was a lot of fun! This a picture of all the Volcanoes!
This picture is one of the images that I used in my display, it talks about what different elements make up an erupting volcano.
When I had painted everything the Volcano was pretty much done and when it was dry we would be able to get the ingredients togehter to make the eruption. I used Vinegar, washing liquid, Baking soda and food colouring.
This picture is what it all looked like when it was finished and just before it erupted.
This is a video of the erupting Volcano. At first it didn't work as well because not enough of the ingredients were used, but when the liquid was all poured in the eruption was a lot bigger.
Below is my Glogster information page that we had to complete in the research phase of the unit.
