[Free Registration/Login Required] In this unit children should come to recognize that underneath all surfaces is rock which they may not be able to see, that rocks get broken down into pebbles and soils which we can often see, and that there are different sorts of rocks with different characteristics. Pebbles and soils from different rocks consequently have different characteristics. Students are guided through experiments testing the hardness and permeability of rocks and the drainage capacity of soil.
