What are volcanos?
A volcano is an opening in either a mountain or a ground which allows hot rock, ash, smoke, gases
and lava to breakout from below the surface through a pipe-like outlet called a vent. These eruptions
form a cone-shaped land form made of these materials. Volcanoes are really dangerous and hot when
they erupt and could kill or badly injure you. The gases that come out of the volcano can be really
dangerous for your lungs.

What are the parts to a volcano?
There are lots of parts to a volcano. The most important one is the magma chamber, It is located under
the earth's surface and this is where all the magma and gasses are stored. Next there is the earth crust
. The mountain is formed by the volcanoes old eruptions which is lava and ash. Going up through the hil

What is the difference between Lava and Magma?
Magma is made up of melted rocks and it is stored under the earth's crust in the magma chamber.
Lava is magma that reaches the surface of the earth through the vent.

How do volcanoes erupt?
The gas particles in the magma start to form bubbles and as the bubbles rise they start to expand.
Soon the bubble are to strong for the surrounding rock and the rocks fractures, allowing the magma
to get to the surface. Once at the surface the lava runs down the side of the hill, flowing quite fast, and
a big ash cloud forming over the hill.

I really liked writing this text but it was a bit hard because I didn't really know that much about volcanoes.
here is the slide of all the info about writing this work click here
please comment on what I did good and what I could improve on.
