Lava Fossils

We made fossils last week and we are just now getting around to painting them so they looked like cooled lava. We learned about Mt. Vesuvius and and how it destroyed and preserved the ancient civilization of Pompeii, Italy.

The kids for once are taking a real interest in learning and I couldn't be happier. They are responding better than I thought they would to the Homeschool lifestyle.
