4. READING ON NOTEBOOK PAGE 145 Introduction to the importance of rocks! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6QNqcAv BYM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6QNqcAv BYM As we read, we’ll highlight the key ideas and fill in the graphic organizer!

5. NB 149: ROCK CYCLE MODEL Metamorphic Rocks What should all the arrows to metamorphic rocks be labeled? Igneous Rocks How is magma created? How is it then turned in to a rock? Sedimentary Rocks How are sediments made? How are they then turned in to rocks?

6. NB 149 ROCK CYCLE MODEL KEY

7. LESSON 9 Date: LT: I can describe the rock cycle. Sponge: What type of rock is formed from extreme heat and pressure?

8. TO DO…

9. Rock Cycle Diagram Get one large sheet of light colored paper per person and a pack of crayons per table. I’ll give you time to decorate as we go.

10. Name on the top! Title if Rock Cycle. Write the three types of rocks. –Metamorphic Rock –Sedimentary Rock –Igneous Rock

11. Write the words sediment and magma. Draw pictures to help remind you what these mean!

12. Using green, draw arrows labeled heat and pressure to show what types of rocks can become metamorphic rocks.

13. Using red, draw arrows labeled melting from the types of rocks that can melt to the magma.

14. Using blue, draw an arrow from the magma to the igneous rock and label it cooling.

15. Using orange, draw arrows labeled weathering and erosion from the types of rocks that can weather and erode to sediments.

16. Using purple, draw an arrow from sediments to sedimentary rock labeled cementing.

17. Make a key at the bottom. –Red = Melting –Orange = Weathering, Erosion –Blue = Cooling –Purple = Cementing –Green = Heat and Pressure

18. Performance Assessment: Rock Cycle Put your name at the top of your notecard! Number it 1 to 3. Answer igneous, metamorphic, or sedimentary. 1. This rock is formed from cooled magma. 2. This rock is formed from extreme heat and pressure (but not enough to melt)! 3. This rock is formed when bits of rocks and sand are cemented together.

19. LESSON 9 Date: LT: I can describe the rock cycle. Sponge: Can a metamorphic rock change in to a different type of metamorphic rock?

21. BILL NYE: ROCKS AND SOIL Below your sponge, record 2 facts in each part of the table.

22. TABLE CHALLENGE Number your whiteboard 1 to 9. Record an I, S, or M for each one. The table with the most correct gets the candy!

23. TABLE CHALLENGE 1. You lie deep in the Earth’s crust. You slowly melt from the heat of the mantle. You erupt out of a volcano and harden in the cool air. 2. You lie deep below the surface where there is extreme heat and pressure. A fault nearby fills with magma increasing the temperature around you. Your minerals change. 3. A glacier flows over you, crushing and dragging you. You become cemented to other particles.

24. TABLE CHALLENGE 4. The roots of trees grow in to your cracks, breaking you out of your rock bed. You fall in to a nearby stream which washes you downstream. As the stream dries up, you become cemented to other bits of rocks. 5. You are part of a tectonic plate colliding with another plate. Your plate gets forced under, causing incredible heat and friction transforming your minerals.

25. TABLE CHALLENGE 6. You lie deep in the Erath’s crust. You slowly melt from the heat of the mantle. As the plates shirt, you get pushed towards the surface to cool. 7. You slowly crumble as rain, ice, and wind weather and erode you. Rain washes you to the bottom of the ocean where you cement to other particles.

26. TABLE CHALLENGE 8. Boom! A volcano has erupted! Lava flowing from the volcano swallows you, melting you instantly. As part of the stream of molten rock, you eventually cool and harden. 9. You lie near the bottom of the Earth’s crust, 10 miles below the surface. With the intense pressure of the rocks above and the heat from below, you are transformed in to another type of rock.
