More about Rocks

 



An excellent book about all that happens underground in our world.

It folds out to take the reader on a journey to the core of the earth.

Then it takes you back to the surface.



We made metamorphic rocks by using pressure to combine 4 different colors of play dough.


Acting like our planet earth to create pressure on these "rocks" and forming a new rock!


We made sedimentary rock by gluing hand torn strips of colorful paper together to create layers.


Using our digital microscope to look at the holes in a lava rock called "Tuff".  I was amazed at how quickly the kids learned how to use the microscope.
