Eat and wash your hands well

To eat healthy food is good because it is healthier than candy and it makes you healthy and it is good for you. You should eat well because some of the top ten causes of death are involved with eating and diet and nutrition. It is important to wash your hands well to stop food poisoning which causes around 9,000 deaths a year. The key to stop food poisoning is hand washing.


Volcanoes

The first time a volcano erupts it blasts off its top. Some people think that a volcano is a deep pit with Magma inside of it, which it is not. A volcano is a mountain that forced itself through weak spots in the earth's crust. A volcano with non-vicious Magma inside it usually will be flat but also kind of cone shaped. A volcano with vicious Magma in it will most likely be cone shaped like the volcanoes shown in pictures and stuff (see below).
Magma and Lava have a very small difference: Magma is in a volcano and Lava is out. Since Lava is out of the volcano, it is a little cooler. Some volcanologists use the gas level around the volcano to tell if it will erupt.
