Read the short story.  Then answer each question. 
 
Max’s Good Habit 
Max reads more than anyone he knows. He loves to read during all 
of his free time. His friends tease him because he would rather read 
than play video games, but his parents and his 
teachers are proud of him. They say reading is 
important, and it will help him learn about the 
world around him. They also tell him it is a good 
habit to read on a regular basis.  
One day Max was reading a magazine article 
about volcanoes. He told his friends all about 
volcanoes and what causes them to erupt. The 
very next week, his class was assigned a science 
project about volcanoes. Guess who everyone wanted in their 
project group? Max’s friends weren’t teasing him anymore.  
Max ended up being in a group with Liz, Anna and Josh. The 
assignment was to create a poster board with information about 
volcanoes and to build a volcano model.  
Max made copies of the magazine article about volcanoes so his 
project partners could read about them too. They also went to the 
library to look for more information about volcanoes.

The group met at Anna’s house that night to organize the 
information and decide what they wanted to put on the poster 
board. They all asked Max what he thought was most important. 
Then they decided on the following together. 
What causes volcanoes to erupt? The release of pressure when 
magma rises up through cracks in the Earth’s crust 
causes volcanoes to erupt. 
How do volcanoes form? Lava from eruptions 
cools and forms new crust. The crust builds up 
after several eruptions to form a volcano. 
How hot is lava? Lava can get as hot as 1,165 Fahrenheit.  
The next night they met at Josh’s house to build their volcano. They 
used cardboard and modeling clay. First they made a volcano 
shape with the cardboard, and then they covered the shape in 
brown and red clay. The red was lava flowing down the volcano. 
They also attached red clay to the top of the volcano to make it 
look like it was erupting.   
The volcano looked great. Max, Liz, Anna and Josh were very proud 
of their hard work. When they turned in their project, their teacher 
was proud too. Thanks to Max’s good habit, they earned an A+ on 
both parts of the project.
