TEXT VERSION Introduction (grades 4 - 8) *This packet is only available online. (From VOLCANOES! Poster. All the images are clickable for larger view.) (Left: Poster Fig. 1) Volcanic eruptions are among the Earth's most powerful and destructive forces. Imagine hearing a volcano erupt thousands of miles away. Imagine looking through binoculars and seeing the top of a mountain collapse. Imagine discovering an ancient Roman city that had been buried in volcanic ash. Volcanoes are also creative forces. The Earth's first oceans and atmosphere formed from the gases given off by volcanoes. In turn, oceans and an atmosphere created the environment that made life possible on our planet. Volcanoes have also shaped the Earth's landscape. Many of our mountains, islands, and plains have been built by volcanic eruptions. Why Do Volcanoes Erupt? Deep within the Earth it is so hot that some rocks slowly melt and become a thick flowing substance called magma . Because it is lighter than the solid rock around it, magma rises and collects in magma chambers. Eventually some of the magma pushes through vents and fissures in the Earth's surface. A volcanic eruption occurs! Magma that has erupted is called

Personification Lesson Plans and Resources Lesson Plan I Grade Level: upper elem. students Goal: Students can identify personification and determine when to use it in their writing. Focus: Identifying the use of personification Examples: "The ancient car groaned into third gear." "The cloud scattered rain throughout the city." "The tropical storm slept for two days." The nonliving objects in the above sentences (car, cloud, storm) have been given human qualities (groaned, scattered, slept). Adding meaning to nonliving or nonhuman objects in this manner is called personification. Personify the following sentences. Change the words in parentheses to words that would describe a human's actions: 1.My bedroom door (opened). 2.The puppy (barked) when I left for school. 3.The leaf (fell) from the tree. 4.The flashlight (went on). 5.Hair (is) on my head. 6.The CD player (made a noise). 7.The net (moves) when the basketball goes through. 8.The player piano keys (moved up and down). 9.The space shuttle (took off).

Blanket and Toy Drives for Shelter Animals Introduction Holidays are a great time to spend time with loved ones-both human and nonhuman-but during the excitement of the season, many forget that the holiday spirit doesn't reach animals in shelters. It is important to teach students to think beyond their circumstances and to relate to those who are less fortunate. Animals in shelters have no voices. During the holidays, we cannot hear lonely dogs howling or bored cats pacing in their cages behind shelter doors, but we know that they are there and that they need our voices to speak for them. You can be an angel for animals by making sure that shelter animals have a voice-yours!
