After visiting Mt. Saint Helens while camping at Cispus with our entire 6th grade, I led my science classes through some more study of volcanos. I prepared a lesson on Internet research to study Mt.

The following handouts explain the process my kids experienced step-by-step.
Here is the assignment that was given to my 6th graders in three separate handouts:
