Volcanos!

On Tuesday, there were a lot of explosions on the 5th grade floor! Did you see (or smell) them? Many of the volcanos were very pretty, some even had little houses or people at their bases. It was cool to see the volcanos erupt and it wasn't that difficult to make it happen. -->First, we added water, then vinegar, and finally baking soda.

Pouring water into the funnel.

Squeezing in some vinegar (it smelled pretty strong).

The final ingredient: baking soda.
 Now, for the fun part. Check out these erupting volcanoes!
