Volcanoes erupting

We are learning to write about a moment in time. 

We used our language experience of an erupting volcano and you tube videos to help us write about the moment a volcano erupts.

Here are some examples with pictures we created using our volcano vocabulary.

“Bang, crash, bang!” The rocky volcano erupted! Red and orange lava ran as fast as rockets taking off. The ashes and sparks flew around like butterflies. The smoke shot out of the red hot volcano. The lava killed all the plants that were in its pathway. The volcano lava did not stop.

By Ronan

Kaboom pssss!! The giant brown volcano erupted. It started with grey steam like a raincloud. Red sticky ash jumped all over the volcano. Round rocks spat everywhere. The ash was orange and sticky like gross slugs.

By Leonor

Ssssshhhhh! Boom!!! Bang!!! The volcano hissed as it was booming out flaming rocks. It is dripping out lava. Bubbling on the the inside. The lava was burning like fire. It was so noisy. Sssshhhh boom!!! Boom!!! Bang!!! Bang!!! Smack!!! Smack!!!.The volcano is hard like rocks. The grey smoke was foggy, grey and strong and smelled dusty it blended in with the ash.  

By Denym

Fire rocks rolling down the side of the enormous volcano. Lava killing all the plants in its way as it makes its way through the villages garden. Enormous piles of smoke cover the wonderful view of the extinct volcano.

By AnneLise

Bang! The volcano is erupting. It was throwing hot rocks. The lava slowly slipped down the volcano. Lots of smoke came out. The lava was very very hot.

By Kyle

Boom! Loud red lava spitting out of the steaming volcano. Big hot rocks rumbling down the brown fiery volcano. Kaboom! The hot steaming rocks tumbling down faster and faster. The hot steaming lava destroying the city and town. The smoky volcano erupting.

By Kelly.

Wow! Everyone screamed when the volcano erupted and it was like red blood coming out of the volcano, I couldn't believe that was real. The teachers were tipping water and vinegar in. The volcano exploded lava out of the sand. The real volcano spat hot red rocks and black ash out of the big hole in the top.
