You will lava this little clip about volcanoes! It explains what a volcano is and describes the four different types. It also addresses how magma flows through a conduit, passes through a vent, and becomes lava. All of this takes place as Mia video chats with RJ from Hawaii, sharing the photos she has taken. Animated diagrams are used as well.
