Our class is lucky enough to have a SUU students in our class. Mrs. Hallows prepared and taught a visual arts integrated lesson to introduce our Gravity Unit.
We had a great time at our Cedar Breaks field trip! It was a great extension to our Rock Unit. We went on a hike observing the three types of rocks, discussed trees and animals, learned about weathering from a park ranger and visited with Smokey the Bear.
For our science unit, we made a model of all three types of rocks. Our favorite was the metamorphic cookies! We discussed the process of how metamorphic rocks are made: Rocks that have been changed over time due to heat and pressure.
