Educator Workshop: Lava Layering - Making and Mapping Volcanos
When: Saturday, Sept. 24, 10 a.m. to 12 p.m.
Where: Columbia Memorial Space Center, Downey, California
Target Audience: Teachers for grades 5-8
Overview: This free workshop gives teachers a chance to get hands-on with a new standards-based activity from NASA that explores geologic history through volcano formation and excavation. Participants will use playdough to construct a model of a volcano and produce lava flows. Then, they'll have a chance to observe, draw and interpret the history and stratigraphy of a volcano produced by others in the workshop. This activity meets Next Generation Science Standards for grades 5-8.
