Students are researching volcanoes of the world from a select list provided by Mr. Mutter. For this research students will work in groups and answer questions from a volcano information handout. The information will then be compiled into a Powerpoint presentation using images and graphics that tells the story of the group's volcano. The class will utilize the Library Information Center and Ms. Hatcher will provide instruction in Work Citation.
