We rock!





We've loved learning about rocks for the last few days! I think it's turned the entire class into rock hounds! The children have been sorting and examining all the rocks they can find. We learned that rocks are made of minerals by finding all the 'mineral parts' of a cookie rock! We also made our own igneous rocks from melting crayons down, then letting them cool, and from melting down chocolate chips to make a chocolate igneous rock! We can't wait for science each day to learn more cool rock stuff!
