6th Grade Science Class

In science class today we worked out of the Focus On Ohio Standards curriculum Rocks and Minerals as we reviewed the three types of rock, rock cycle, and minerals. The students had a homework assignment: uses of rocks and minerals worksheet that needs to be completed and turned in tomorrow. As soon as we get good weather, the class we take a walk down to the elementary school and dig around for rocks that they will be bring back to class. The following day, the students will complete different activities following the rock key that will determine what kind of rock is it. They will keep track of their data and turn it in for a grade. I hope to do this tomorrow or Thursday at the latest. The students will have a test over rocks and minerals on Tuesday October 5th.
