Monday 1/13th
The Rock Cycle
 What is the rock cycle is
 How rocks change
STANDARD II.III.II.1 Describe the role of pressure (and heat) in the rock cyle.
Collect, organize, visualization
TTW have students make a 15 square foldable. There will 5 squares for each type of
rock, Sedimentary, metamorphic, and igneous. Each table will write characterisitcs of
each type of rock in there classification. Students should be able to id the type of rock
to the correct classification.
TSW make a 15 squares , 5 squares per group of rocks, sedimentary, metamorphic,
and igneous. Students will work in cooperative groups write the correct characteristics
of each type of rock for that classification.
Teacher will spot check to monitor progress by giving them a rock to id
As per IEP
Modified test, provide notes, visual, audio info etc.
Rock, rock cycle, sedimentary, metamorphic , igneous, compaction, cementation,
erosion, weathering, convergent boundaries, divergent boundaries, subduction zone,
continental crust, oceanic crust, transverse fault, fault zones, minerals
The rock cycle is a fundamental concept in geology that describes the dynamic
transitions through geologic time among the three main rock types: sedimentary,
metamorphic, and igneous. As the diagram to the right illustrates, each of the types of
rocks are altered or destroyed when it is forced out of its equilibrium conditions. An
igneous rock such as basalt may break down and dissolve when exposed to the
atmosphere, or melt as it is subducted under a continent. Due to the driving forces of
the rock cycle, plate tectonics and the water cycle, rocks do not remain in equilibrium
and are forced to change as they encounter new environments.

subduction zone, continental crust, & oceanic crust and how it fits into the rock cycle.

Recall, model, visualization, distinguish, assess, select, identify
TTW make data collection sheets to web quest on the rock cycle. The characteristics
,collection of rocks & classification, forces affecting the rock cycle, draw & label the
rock cycle, mini assessments before the final assessment at the end of the web quest.
TSW will record characteristics of the rocks to id later samples of rocks to id and their
formations, After the rock collection mini assessment, after rock changes, a mini
assessment, types of rocks a mini assessment, after the rock cycle mine assessment, a
final assessment over all the web quest.
