Volcanoes

Primary Worksheets: Volcanoes

A volcano is a mountain. It has an
opening that leads to a pool of molten
rock from below the surface of the Earth.
Volcanos can erupt if enough pressure
builds up. Lava and hot ash will flow out
from the volcano, causing a lot of
damage to whatever comes in contact.
