Imagine the Earth’s surface is like a giant puzzle made of pieces called plates. When these plates move, they can push mountains up, just like stacking blocks. Sometimes, when one plate moves under another, it melts and becomes molten rock, which then rises to the top and bursts out as lava, creating a volcano on top of the mountain. That’s how some mountains become volcanoes!
Examples
- A quiet hill becomes a noisy volcano after an earthquake.
- Children see molten rock bubbling up from the ground like hot soup.
