The Rock Cycle

The Rock Cycle
Students will learn the processes of how rocks are formed and what traits scientists use to classify them.
The unit will culminate with students connecting together all the concepts of rock classification and formation into an interactive rock cycle illustrating the processes that change one type of rock into another using Microsoft?Excel.
This demonstrates that rocks are not static, but part of a dynamic cycle and allows the students to reconstruct this concept with their own words and pictures.

http://www.standards.dfes.gov.uk/schemes2/secondary_science/sci08h/
KS3 (England) Science Unit 8H: The rock cycle
This unit is part of the scheme of work the shows how the science programme of study (PoS) for key stage 3 can be managed more easily.
The scheme is not statutory; you can use as much or as little as you wish. You could use the whole scheme or individual units. The sections on using this scheme and sequencing the units can help you to decide how you want to use the scheme.
You may also wish to combine these units with units from another subject. The combining units section gives information on exploiting powerful links between subjects.
1. How is sedimentary rock formed?
2. Are all limestones different?
3. What is different about metamorphic rocks?
4. Where do igneous rocks come from?
6. What is the rock cycle?
