Volcanoes in a jar.





















We found some pictures of making volcanoes in a jar, in a magazine and thought it would be fun to give them a try. The children helped to prepere all the equipment then we set about experimenting. It was fascinating to watch the volcanoes grow and spill over the jar. After the first one was finished the children wanted to make another one; we ended up making three and they all looked very cool. Next it was time for some exploring using the mixture. The children had lots of fun with their discovery time. Exploring with science is a great way for investigation, questioning, discussing and sharing ideas. Our Tui Team are very inquisitive and the volcanoes were a great bit of fun for some team exploration.
