In this rock worksheet, students review the three types of rocks and their distinguishing characteristics. This worksheet has 10 matching and 10 short answer questions.

Students define igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary, and use rock identification books to identify igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks. Students then discuss which rocks early man would have found useful for tool creation.

Students explore, predict, and create each major rock form (sedimentary, metamorphic, and igneous) with colored modeling clay, discover cycle of rock formation, and examine important relationships of heat and pressure in rock development.

In this earth science worksheet, young scholars examine the differences between the igneous, sedimentary, and the metamorphic type of rocks.

First graders examine rocks. In this rock lesson, 1st graders look at the properties of rocks and classify them. They discover the three types of rocks: sedimentary, metamorphic, and igneous.

Students discover the three types of rock. They weigh and examine rock specimens.

In this using the internet worksheet, students search several websites to review information about the heart, human senses, the solar system, and planets. Students also read information about the rock cycle and answer provided questions.

Students study the three types of rock characteristics; igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic. They are divided into three groups and each group takes one of the rock characteristics. They then act out the characteristics of their rock...

In this rock cycle worksheet, students review major concepts related to rock formation by answering 15 multiple choice questions and matching 15 terms to their definitions. Students identify 7 rocks as metamorphic, sedimentary, or...

In this rock cycle worksheet, students match 5 terms with their definitions about rocks and minerals, they fill in 5 blanks to complete sentences about types of rocks and they identify kinds of rocks and processes in the rock cycle.

Students are able to describe earth processes (e.g., rusting, weathering, erosion) that have affected selected physical features in students, neighborhoods. They are able to identify various earth structures (e.g., mountains, faults,...

Young scholars engage in cooperative research projects in order to study about the properties of the three basic rock types and the processes that form them. They plan and develop their products.with the resources for conducting their...

In this rock worksheet, students compare and contrast the 3 classes of rocks: igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary. This worksheet is a graphic organizer.

This geology PowerPoint engages students in learning about the three types of rocks. Each slide displays a photograph of a sedimentary, metamorphic and igneous rock, as well as descriptions of what they look like.

Students plot where minerals come from and have an awareness of how mineral use makes the world interdependent. They examine how to identify some sort of mineral products they use each day.

Students explore the differences in sedimentary, metamorphic, and igneous rocks. They discuss the rock cycle of the different formations. Students discuss how rock is formed into different shapes. They explore, predict, and create each...

There are inconsistencies in the information included on each slide. For example, physical characteristics are listed for sedimentary rocks, but formation is mentioned for metamorphic rocks. For igneous rocks, characteristics and a hint...

Fourth graders improvise music and dance to express their analysis of types of rocks. They discuss the three classes of rocks, list describing words, and create a short musical piece and dance to symbolize the rock they are dancing.

Young geologists learn how to use an identification key in order to classify rocks. The key is designed to help them classify rocks into three types: ignesous, metamorphic, and sediimentary. After an initial teacher-led demonstration,...

Students receive a basis for understanding the three main classifications of rock: igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic. They engage in a hands-on activity designed to give them an appreciation for rocks and minerals.

Students investigate the three types of material stress related to rocks. They watch a PowerPoint Presentation, view an online animation of the three types of rock stress, identify the various types of rocks, answer true or false...

In this rock cycle worksheet, students use a diagram of the rock cycle to complete 16 fill in the blank and 2 short answer questions.

In this rock cycle worksheet, students study the diagram of the rock cycle and explain how minerals originally in magma could travel through the cycle. Then they identify how these minerals end up in each of three main classifications of...
