While waiting for our experiments to finish evaporating, here are some activities that will challenge your inner Geologist! Let's see how much you can learn....
I learned a couple new facts from doing these activities. 1.Limestone is a sedimentary rock. 2.You can find minerals all around your house, even it your makeup and toothpaste. 3.Some foods actually have minerals in them. That means I have eaten minerals before.
1. Quartz makes up most of the dust in the air(that is why it is one of the most common minerals) 2. Silver is used in film development 3. Ice is a mineral
First I learned that there is actually a rare kind of sandstone which can be shaped BY HAND! Second, I learned that the heating of lightning striking the sand melts it causing it to form a rock fulgurite. Third, rocks can be "recycled"!
1. Geodes are rocks that are plain on the inside but have beautiful crystals on the inside.
2. Geodes are formed inside bubbles of a volcanic rock. Dissolved minerals get into a hollow area and harden into and outer shell which creates the geode. The minerals continue to form on the inside walls of the shell.
3. It can take hundreds of millions of years for the space inside of a geode to be filled.
1. First that sedimentary rocks like limestone cannot float in water.
2.The crinoid fossil looks like the sea lily and they are closely alike, they both kind of have the same type of body.
3. I also learned that ice can be a mineral because snowflakes always have 5 point symmetry and also the ice has crystals and that it matches all the characteristics for it to be a mineral.
The first thing that I learned from doing these activities is that ice is a mineral. The second thing I learned was Arizona has a lot of bauxite. Last, the last thing I learned is pumice can float in water.
The three things that I learned from these sites were... 1. Washington state was under a ocean 500 million years ago. Less than 1/4 of it was showing that time. 2. Silver is use to develop film. 3. Rocks can turn into each other, for example a igneous rock can turn into a sedimentary rock if the weather and erosion makes it a sediment and then the compacting and cementing turns it into a sedimentary rock. Though a process like this, rocks will change over a long period of time.
1. The three different types of rocks (igneous, metamorphic, and Sedimentary)and how they are formed; the rock cycle.
2. One useful fact I learned was that a pencil is made out of many thuings I didn't know about, like graphit or bauxute.
3. Finally, I learned about how Washington was formed in 500,000,000 years! It's like how the land that Ms.Mcpheeters school was on, in North Carolina; it was all under ocean before.
1. I learned that a igneous rock can be turned into a metamorphic rock by the heat and pressure it takes in.
2. I learned that graphite is used in pencil led. Graphite is also a conductor of electricity, unlike other minerals.
3. I learned that if I want to know if the rock or mineral is a mineral it has to be five things. The first one is that it has to be from a natural environment. The second one is that it must be solid. The third one is that it must be a crystal rock. That means it must contain crystals. The next one is that the mineral must be made up of ONE ingredient. The last thing is that it must be inorganic. That means it can not be living.
These are three things I learned from the websites. Igneous rock was formed by lava. Heat and pressure make an Igneous rock to a Metamorphic rock. The last one I learned is a mineral has to be solid.
1 thing I larned was that sedementary rocks and igneous rocks change from the pressure which starts to heat up.2nd thing is thaat the most common geodes are limestone. And last I learned that igneos rocks can be made from when a volcano explodes.
Three things I learned were: 1. Ice is a mineral! 2. Granite can form inside the Earth as well as on volcano and mountainsides. 3. Limestone is sedimentary.
