Tsunamis and Volcanoes

Hello everyone this is a blog post about tsunamis and volcanoes and how they are made.

Tsunamis are formed by underwater earthquakes. The earthquake causes water to rise on the surface.

A volcano is a mountain that has a pool of molten rock.  This rock comes from the mantel, a  layer in our earth. The molten rock pushes up into a mountain creating something called a magma chamber. It builds up pressure and then explodes. We have been working  very hard to make this blog. Please comment.  We would love to hear what you think and about any things we have missed out.  A big thank you to  Mrs Lobodowska and Mr Kettlewell (the best teachers ever) 🙂
