Ms. Becca: The Oaks zoomed in on the geosphere this week by learning about the rock cycle. We saw a demonstration of the rock cycle using jelly beans to illustrate how sedimentary, metamorphic, and igneous rocks are formed. This week we will use Starbursts to demonstrate our knowledge of the rock cycle in a similar demonstration. Students also played a game where they traveled to different stations (sediment, magma, sedimentary, metamorphic, igneous) to represent the path a rock may travel through the rock cycle.
