Pet Rock

Similar to me...that rock is gneiss

The pet rock project is due on the 24th of January. Please follow the rubric to reach maximum points. By Friday this week you should be able to identify your rock, and give some examples of memebers of the rock's family.

Using the strategies that we developed over the last two days, you should be able to identify your rock with this page. It gives great

Homework for Tuesday.

We started on sedimentary rocks today.
Remember I announced a quiz for Wednesday. It will most likely be on the formation of rocks and ignious rocks.
Make sure you bring your homework in tomorrow. Here are links to the worksheets if you didnt get them or you lost them.

Friday

Hey everyone,

Sorry I missed out on you on Friday. I had a family emergency back where my parents live that I had to attend to. When we get back on Monday, we are going to review how rock is formed and start work on sedimentary rocks. Also, your questions from the video will be due. I will have some rock examples you can look at, so you can have a hands on feel of what we are actually talking about. I also plan on having a quiz this week. The quiz will probably be only about 10 questions about the formation of rocks and igneous rocks. I will also finish up grading the mighty minerals presentations, and they will go in your grade book.

See you Monday.
