A formidable underwater volcano created the twin islands of Hunga Tonga and Hunga Ha‘apai. Then, on Jan. 15, that volcano destroyed them.

Located in the South Pacific, the eruption was one of the most powerful ever captured on satellite. The size and fury of the resulting plume made a jaw-dropping scene on Earth’s surface and amazed scientists. Unfortunately, the eruption has had disastrous and deadly local consequences: A tsunami nearly 50 feet high pummeled some of Tonga’s populated islands.

Let’s continue our study of volcano’s.

A word search makes a fun way to review vocabulary words. It allows students to see how well they remember volcano terminology by finding each word among the jumbled letters. Review any terms whose definition students don’t remember.
