6th Grade Science Class

In class today, the students finished their rock cycle posters explaining what the rock cycle is as well as drawing the rock cycle. Afterwords the students read an article on introducing geology and answering five questions about the article. We went over the five questions as a class. Next the students in groups of four read p.137 and 138 out of an old textbook on igneous rock. As a group they had to answer six questions as we went over them at the end of class. Finally the students were given a homework assignment Asking Mr. Aims worksheet that needs to be completed and turned in tomorrow. In class tomorrow, the students will be reading more about igneous rock and then getting into sedimentary rock.
