Earthly Forces: Quakes, Volcanoes, & Tornadoes
Do you ever wonder how tornados form, why California has so many earthquakes, or how many volcanoes there are in the world? Help us answer these questions by investigating how the Earth works. Through demonstrations and hands-on projects, we will model the Earth processes that result in extreme natural events. We will make mini volcanoes and create a tornado--that’s just the tip of the iceberg!
