Mexico's Natural Wonder: Paricutin Volcano

WALT: Increase our knowledge by reading a wide range of texts (Article a day - Book of Knowledge)

For this task, I have read an article from Readworks and I have written what I have learned.

I learned that the Paricutin Volcano in Mexico earned its title as one of the seven natural wonders of the world in an explosive way. In 1943, this volcano emerged from a cornfield in a village about 200 miles (321 kms) west of Mexico City.

I also learned that people living in the area had been feeling the ground shake and hearing it rumble for weeks. Then one day, the earth in the cornfield rose up about six feet! Ash and vapor exploded from the ground. By later that day, a small cone shape had formed. The volcano had begun erupting, sending lava and pieces of molten rock into the air. As these rock pieces landed around the new volcano, the cone shape grew bigger and bigger.
