Yr 7 Pinatubo HW

Pinatubo was one of the largest eruptions in the 20th century. It was also one of the loudest noises! We are going to do some work in class on Pinatubo. You will need some information to help you. I want you to do some research on the eruption in 1991. Can you find out how the volcano effected the surrounding land and people. Produce one page that describes one effect in detail. You may paste in pictures, but you must describe the effect in YOUR OWN words. The links below may help:
