Description
Rock Cycle, Weathering & Erosion: Lab/Simulation, Modeling Activity, Worksheets is a professionally created, human generated resource with an engaging, hands-on activity that will help your students to understand the various processes that occur in the rock cycle, including weathering and erosion.
Suitable for students in Grades 7 - 9, this activity/lab fits neatly into an average science lesson, saves teachers valuable prep time and can be carried out easily using basic equipment in a school laboratory!
Rock Cycle, Weathering & Erosion: Lab/Simulation, Modeling Activity, Worksheets includes:
- two handy, printable black-and-white Student Worksheets with a series of questions that students are required to answer as they perform the tasks (these include a fun Word Find they can complete if they finish up early).
- FREE digital PowerPoint version of the worksheets (for students who prefer to use their laptop)
- two Answer Sheets
Rock Cycle, Weathering & Erosion: Lab/Simulation, Modeling Activity, Worksheets covers the following:
- the rock cycle
- how the process of weathering breaks down rock into sediment
- erosion: transporting sediment from one area to another
- melting of rock to form lava or magma
- cooling and hardening of lava or magma to form igneous rock
Skills:
- following written instructions
- using simple laboratory equipment, such as a mortar & pestle
- constructing a boat-like structure from aluminum foil
- safely using a Bunsen burner
Rock Cycle, Weathering & Erosion: Lab/Simulation, Modeling Activity, Worksheets includes an Answer Key (PDF) with detailed answers and images in full color. There is no need to research or fact-check here; it's all been done for you!
