Astronomy Lesson of Records #2 Due to the outstanding success of the first Lesson of Records, we are going to have another one! The first was based on space and the universe, so this one is all about the earth. The questions are formatted like "What is the biggest..." or "what is the smallest", and each will be a known World record. There are 20 questions, 10 points a question (though I do raise it if noone guesses) so this lesson will provide a MINIMUM of 200 points! The first to guess correctly gets the points, and there will be no arguing over answers, as they come from a very reliable source. So yeah, get in and have some fun earning big points for your house! |
Okay, question 1... What is the largest active volcano on earth? |
Mauna Loa? |
Roma raised her hand. "Is it the Muana Loa in Hawaii?" |
Jamie raised her hand and said, "Mauna Loa (Hawaii) is the world's largest active volcano." |
Leah raised her hand and said, "The largest active Volcano is Muana Loa located in Hawaii." |
Lauren raised her hand, "The Mauna Loa?" |
