Paper Mache Volcano:

Please keep the size manageable for the students to transport. A tinfoil pie plate or lasagna pan, a shoe box or other disposable container with sides works best to keep the “lava” contained. One thing to keep in mind is that often times the students want to use large containers to build their volcanoes around, but these are usually the ones that don’t “erupt” because the reaction does not reach the top. Pint size bottles or smaller works best.
