1. Adopt a volcano: Pick a volcano you would like to learn about about and share with participants. Get to know your volcano...and, like any proud parent, become an expert on it!

1) Describe your volcano (location--latitude, longitude, type, eruptions)
2) Share some history/culture/folklore about your volcano
3) How has your volcano affected the surrounding environment?
4) Tell about interesting events that are connected with your volcano.

2. Volcano Quiz:

1) Compose one "volcano quiz question" about your volcano that we can put up on our project web site.
2) Be sure that your question uses information that you received either on the listserv or at a participating school website.
3) Give a hint (or hints ;) about where the answer can be found.

3. Once all the participants have shared their volcanoes, look at the data that you have collected and formulate some generaliztions, to be shared on the list as well

a) What do all volcanoes have in common?
b) How are they different?
c) What do you think causes the differences?

4. Volcanoes in Space: What do the presence of volcanoes on Jupiter's moon, Io tell us about the crust and interior of this space object? How does the study of our own planet's geology help with the understanding of our solar system?

5. What other activities or sharing can you suggest that the participants do? (i.e. Hawaii kids could interview people who've lived through other volcanic eruptions, etc.)
