Science - Rocks and the Rock Cycle
For our last three weeks, we are going to spend a bit of time learning about rocks and the rock cycle.
Why? Well, as you're going to out find out, rocks are everywhere and used to make many different things you rely on everyday! People who study rocks are known as geologists. Who knows, maybe one day you might want to be a geologist!
Before we go any further, let's first learn about the three main types of rocks from our old friend Dr. Binocs. These videos can be a little silly, but they have so much great information!
Steps
1. Watch the video below.
2. Answer the following questions and hand them in. Remember, set up your page in an organized way - include your name, date, and a title which could be "Types of Rocks".
