This lesson plan spans 9 days and focuses on teaching 7th grade students about rocks and the rock cycle. Students will learn about the rock cycle through a response system video, examine rock samples, work in groups to study different rock types, and do a hands-on rock lab. They will collaborate to create presentations and a slide about rocks using Google Docs. Assessment includes worksheets, presentations, a lab exercise, and a slide about rocks. The goal is for students to understand rock formations and how rocks change through the rock cycle.
