KRAKATOA

In 1883 a volcanic island called Krakatoa in Indonesia errupted causing major destruction and becoming one of the world's worst disasters. We learned about the anniversary from our little Science book! So to learn even more about it I checked out a book about Krakatoa from the library. Then Melanie and I looked at some BEAUTIFUL pictures online of volcanos and we decided to make one. The anniversary was August 27th. So while all the children were starting school, learning where to sit and what the rules are Melanie was learning about a historical natural disaster and making a volcano. That's COOL. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Krakatoa_eruption_lithograph.jpg#filelinks
