Plan your model. What are you going to make it out of, how will you make it erupt, what landscape will you paint it? 

We will put a bottle in the middle and wrap it in flour and use water to harden it. We will shape it like a stratovolcano. We will make it erupt using elephant's toothpaste. We will need hydrogen peroxide and potassium permanganate and also dish soap.

Build it! Record it erupting and share.
