1. 12.2 Bell Ringer Title new page “Rocks Warm-Ups.” Copy down the following words and put a check mark next to the objects that you would consider a rock.

2. Catalyst: Read pg 45-46 Can X-Ray dig a hole all the way to China? Is it possible? Why or why not—use what you know about the layers of the Earth to answer.

3. Sedimentary Cornell Notes Key TermsNotes Summary:

4. What is a rock? Naturally formed Solid Mixture of one or more minerals It is not: A pile of sand (b/c the pieces are not packed together) A tree because it is a living thing

5. Sedimentary Rocks

6. Inquiry: See how much you already know! Observe the sedimentary rock on your desk. Describe what it looks like. Sedimentary Rock is only one of three types of rocks, what do you think, from the example in front of you, makes a sedimentary rock sedimentary?

7. See if you were right!: BrainPop ( start at 1:27 seconds) http://www.brainpop.com/science/earthsyst em/typesofrocks/

8. Sedimentary Rock Sediments such as dust, mud, rock, sand and shells sweep into oceans and rivers and settle to the bottom

9. Sedimentary Rock Over millions of years these sediments form layers hundreds of meters thick. The layers press on one another, which causes the sediment to form a rock Sediments

10. Formation 1.Weathering : rocks are broken into little pieces called sediments 2.Erosion: sediments move from one place to another 3.Deposition : sediments settle down somewhere on earth’s surface and stop moving around 4.Compaction : sediments are squeezed together 5.Cementation: sediments start sticking together and make a sedimentary rock

11. Characteristics Flat Layers Mixed Particle Size

12. Fossils Sedimentary rocks are the only type of rock that can sometimes contain fossils. 4

13. Examples Sandstone- as the name suggests, it is made of grains of sand; often oil is found beneath layers of sandstone Shale-also known as “mudstone”; usually found near slowly moving water Limestone- made of dead organisms and/or their shells; often found in shallow waters Coal- made from the carbon in dead plants; can be burned for energy

14. Real Life: The Grand Canyon (Arizona, USA)

15. Rock Transformation Writing Prompt Directions: Imagine that you are a grain of sand at the bottom of the river. Write an original story about your life that describes the changes that you have undergo as you become sedimentary rock. Your story should be at least 4 sentences. Points will be taken off if your story is not written in complete sentences. you = sedimentary How do you become a sedimentary rock?

16. Monday Homework Finish writing prompt The Rock Cycle Versatile Worksheet

17. 12.3 Bell Ringer Draw a Venn-diagram for rocks and minerals – Include the properties of minerals (5) and rocks (3) – Both: Solid, Naturally Occurring, – Mineral: Crystal structure, inorganic, uniform chemical composition – Rock: May contain organic matter, made of minerals

18. Metamorphic Cornell Notes Key TermsNotes Summary:

19. Inquiry: See how much you already know! Observe the metamorphic rock on your desk. Describe what it looks like. Metamorphic Rock is only one of three types of rocks, what do you think, from the example in front of you, makes a metamorphic rock metamorphic? How is this rock maybe different from sedimentary?

20. See if you were right!: BrainPop ( start at :48 seconds) http://www.brainpop.com/science/earthsyst em/typesofrocks/

21. Formation Metamorphic rocks are made when a rock changes due to heat or pressure – Heat from mantle/core, pressure from weight of rocks above Formed deep underground

22. Characteristics Bended layers Squished grains Very hard and dense – Because of intense heat and pressure – Often used for construction (ex: marble)

23. Bending Layers

24. Squished Grains

25. Examples of Metamorphic Marble: metamorphic rock that comes from metamorphosed limestone or dolomite Slate : fined grained metamorphic rock. Gneiss : medium to course grained metamorphic rock.

26. Check for Understanding Which of the rocks samples below is probably a metamorphic rock? How do you know? Sample A – it shows the characteristic folded layers and twisted bands

27. Catalyst: Read chapter 10 and 11 of Holes Stanley finds a rock with a fish fossil in it, what types of rock are fossils found in?

28. Igneous Rock Cornell Notes Key TermsNotes Summary:

29. Igneous Rocks

30. Inquiry: See how much you already know! Observe the igneous rock on the slide. Describe what it looks like. Igneous Rock is only one of three types of rocks, what do you think, from the example in front of you, makes a igneous rock igneous? How is it different from sedimentary and metamorphic?

31. See if you were right!: BrainPop http://www.brainpop.com/science/earthsyst em/typesofrocks/

32. Igneous Formation Forms from the cooling of magma or lava – Magma is molten (melted) rock inside the volcano – Lava is molten rock outside of the volcano http://video.nationalgeographic.com/video/ player/environment/environment-natural- disasters/volcanoes/volcanoes-101.html Play from 45 seconds to about 2 minutes

33. Intrusive Igneous Rock: Forms inside the Earth from magma Because it is inside it cools very slowly causing it to have large crystal structures and to be coarse and grainy Stone Mountain is an example of Intrusive Igneous!

34. Extrusive Igneous Rock Forms outside the Earth from lava because it is outside it cools rapidly causing it to be glassy, smooth and have small crystal structures or gas bubbles

35. Examples of Igneous Rock:

36. Extrusive: – Pumice- gray with air bubbles – Obsidian- Shiny, black and smooth Intrusive: – Granite- large grains

37. Real Life: Igneous Rock Stone Mountain, GA

38. Bubbles Quiz: Intrusive or Extrusive?

39. Glassy Appearance Quiz: Intrusive or Extrusive?

40. Big Grains Quiz: Intrusive or Extrusive?

42. Types of Rocks Tree Diagram Types of Rocks Sedimentary How is it formed? Examples of sedientary rocks Picture Metamorphic How is formed? Examples of metamorphic Rocks Picture Extrusive Igneous How is it formed? Example of Extrusive Igneous Picture Intrusive Igneous How is it formed? Examples of Intrusive Igneous Picture

43. 12.4 Bell Ringer Create a Venn Diagram for Intrusive and Extrusive Igneous Rock. Should have at least 3 differences for each, and one similarity.

44. Life of a Rock: Comic Strip Overview Goal: Demonstrate an understanding of the rock cycle and the formation of rocks from one type to another. Role: Comic Strip Creator for Atlanta Journal Constitution Newspaper Situation: The AJC wants you to design a storybook showing a rock or piece of sediment traveling through rock cycle Product: Rock Cycle Storyboard Standard: Students will be able to classify rocks by their process of formation

46. Wednesday Agenda Stations: Classify Rocks Lab Rock Cycle Crayon Lab When finished: Rock Transformation Writing Prompt

47. Classifying Sedimentary, Igneous, and Metamorphic Rocks Lab Ranger Drake has taken the hikers’ rock back to forest headquarters. He wants to know if it’s an igneous rock like Kimberlite. Igneous, metamorphic, and Sedimentary Rock often look different from each other because they are formed differently. Ranger Drake wants to compare the hikers’ rock to samples of igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary rocks that are stored at headquarters. Unfortunately, the labels have become separated from the rock samples. Can you help him figure out which rock is which?

48. Classifying Sedimentary, Igneous, and Metamorphic Rocks Lab Challenge: How well can you identify different types of rocks? Materials (per group): 1 rock sample collected by the hikers, 1 magnifying lens, 1 rock kit

49. Classifying Sedimentary, Igneous, and Metamorphic Rocks Lab Part A (Read directions) – Fill out data worksheet Part B (Read directions): Raise your hand when finished with part A so Ms. Hilgefort can give you your rock sample. – Fill out questions

50. Rock Cycle Crayon Lab: Assign Jobs Supplies Manager – Gather and return supplies: only one allowed out of group Heating Master – Use tongs to heat crayon Pressure Master – Use textbook to apply pressure Weather/Erosion Master – Break apart and move crayon *Station Assignments*

51. Supplies 2 crayons Napkin Small piece of aluminum foil Penny Textbook Tong **Large piece of aluminum foil, and hot/cold water cups will remain at station

52. Rock Cycle Crayon Lab Teacher Demonstration Important things to remember: – When putting crayon into hot water, use tongs and only put rock in for about 5 seconds (you are not completely melting it) – When putting crayon shavings on hot plate, 2 people should use tongs. IMMEDIATELY remove from hot plate when melted. DO NOT LET IT BURN! – Only 1 group at heating station at a time – Be careful! Any horseplay will results in removal of lab and alternative assignment
