Science Feb 3 rd, 2015 (A day) Feb 4 th, 2015 (B day) Grab your handout from the basket or your backpack: Rock Cycle (on one side) And the Ed Helper Three Kinds Of Rocks (on the other side) Complete the “Three Kinds of Rock” Side NOW

Warm Up  How can a sedimentary rock change into an igneous rock?

Volunteers…  Remember for any rock to change into an igneous rock, it must first return into the mantle to melt. Once it becomes mantle material, it must travel back up to the surface through a volcano. Once on the surface as lava, it cools into igneous rock.  Does everyone understand this process?

Today’s Agenda:  1. Check homework – Trade and Grade (this is the Ed Helper assignment “Three Kinds of Rock”, Ring of Fire Plotting activity, and the Pangaea Puzzle  2. Finish Rock Cycle color coding activity and check for understanding  3. Independent Work – Graphic Organizer and Choice Activity Board

Minerals vs. Rocks Graphic Organizer  You will receive this handout now  We will go over the directions together now  You can use your notebook and the yellow textbook (page A43) to help you complete this  This will be collected at the end of class for a grade  Anyone talking and wasting time will be given the test immediately on the rock cycle

Bill Nye, the science GUY! You will complete a worksheet as you watch the video…. Listen carefully as the video is playing and fill in the correct answers as you hear them Does anyone have any questions?

Today’s Agenda:  “Rocks around the Room”  You will receive a handout that will help you identify each sample as either igneous, metamorphic, or sedimentary  We will go over the handout now  These are in sheet protectors (Do not take them out please)

Today’s Agenda:  “Rocks around the Room”  You will draw the following table in your notebook  You have 4 minutes to draw this table  GO

Rock Identification  I will pass out different rocks and you will use your notes to determine which type of rock it is.  Sedimentary  Metamorphic  Igneous  You will get a total of six rocks.  You will describe (with details) what the rock looks and feels like.

What does it feel like? What does it look like? What type of rock do you think it is? (sedimentary, metamorphic, igneous) What type of rock is it? Rock 1 Rock 2 Rock 3 Rock 4 Rock 5 Rock 6

Today’s Agenda:  “Rocks around the Room”  We will go over the table requirements now  You will count off from 1-6  You will start in the station that matches your number and stay in that station until the timer goes off  Once the timer sounds, you will go to the next station in numerical order!  (if you are at 6 then you will go to station 1 next)

Today’s Agenda:  “Rocks around the Room”  You will have 4 minutes in each station  Write fast and make sure your conversation is about ROCKS!  4 minutes GO!

ROCKS = COOKIE, HOW CAN THAT BE?  The rocks you see around you - the mountains, canyons & riverbeds, are all made of minerals.  A rock is made up of 2 or more minerals. Think of a chocolate chip cookie as a rock. The cookie is made of flour, butter, sugar & chocolate.  The cookie is like a rock and the flour, butter, sugar & chocolate are like minerals.  You need minerals to make rocks, but you don't need rocks to make minerals.  All rocks are made of minerals. The rocks you see arou nd you - the moun tains, cany ons & riverb eds, are all mad e of miner als. A rock is mad e up of 2 or more miner als. Think of a choc olate chip cooki e as a rock. The cooki e is mad e of flour, butte r, sugar & choc olate. The cooki e is like a rock and the flour, butte r, sugar & choc olate are like miner als. You need miner als to mak e rocks, but you don't need rocks to mak e miner als. All rocks are mad e of miner als.

“Rocks and Minerals LABS  ADD ENTRY INTO YOUR TABLE OF CONTENTS:  Rocks and Minerals Lab  ASSIGN THE NEXT NUMBER, LABEL AND NUMBER THE NEXT AVAILABLE PAGE

Today’s Agenda:  3. Various Labs!  We will begin with a rotation around the room activity called “Rocks around the Room”  You will work around the room observing different rock samples  These sample are in numbered baggies (DO NOT TAKE THEM OUT OF THE BAGS OR HANDLE THEM ROUGH – THEY WILL BREAK)
