Grade 6: Weeks of December 6-17th

We are wrapping up our unit on the rock cycle. Students are completing a story on a sedimentary rock of their choice: shale, limestone, conglomerate, sandstone, or coal. They detail the journey of their sedimentary rock, accurately describing the processes that occurred to form it. We will also learn about metamorphic rock and how it forms under intense heat and pressure. Students will draw a diagram of the entire rock cycle. Grade 6 will have the Sedimentary and Metamorphic Rock test on Tuesday, December 14th.
