All styles are included in the same PDF, so you can choose the option that best suits your classroom and printing preferences.

You will also receive a Parts of a Volcano coloring booklet template. After an adult cuts the four sections apart, the child can color each section to represent one of volcano's parts - core, magma chamber, conduit, vent, lava, gas and dust (cloud), and ash (particles) - and one where they color the whole volcano in. The sections can then be assembled into a booklet. Also included is a cut and paste Parts of a Volcano worksheet.
