Its getting a little ROCKY in first grade!

We explored rocks today!






 And learned about the three types of rocks:  Metamorphic, Sedimentary, and Igneous!




 In between our investigations, we decided to try to make a metamorphic rock out of chocolate chips!
We applied heat and pressure…..




















 a metamorphic rock completed!

 (applying more heat and pressure)















THEN, we also DISCOVERED that CHALK is a SEDIMENTARY ROCK!  

So we made SEDMINENTARY CHALK DRAWINGS!!!!















It has been a fantastic day of learning!!!
