Rocks & Minerals Unit: Lesson 4: Mineral Identification Investigation!
Overview:
Today, we take the level of rigor higher! To review mineral property vocab, students do a quick crossword puzzle, and then read a rap/poem about a girl who'd asked for diamonds but got something questionable. Then, after checking their borax/Epsom salt crystals for the last time, we break out the mineral kits and go to work.
Using the properties they learned about and tested the day or two before, students will identify all of the minerals in their kit cooperatively. When finished, st

Rocks & Minerals Unit: Lesson 1: Mineral Relevance
While some students are inherently interested in rocks and minerals (I always get a rock hound or two) most middle schoolers find the topic boring. To start the unit on rocks and minerals, I've designed a whole lesson on mineral relevance so students can see the enormous role they play in our lives.
In this lesson, students experience real minerals through centers, a reading jigsaw, an online interactive and more, and will begin to see that some of the products they use the most (like their ce

Rocks & Minerals Unit: Lesson 3: Mineral Properties
This lesson, designed to take 2-3 90-minute class periods, introduces students to mineral properties through a mystery story. Through a series of hands-on tests (including hardness and streak), categorization activities (including luster), logic puzzles (putting together the hardness scale) and hints given by the story, students gain knowledge and determine if the giant, crystal filled cavern they inadvertently stumbled into is dangerous, can be used for industrial uses, or may be used for beaut

Continental Drift Interactive Notebook Presentation/Webquest
This Notebook presentation is used either as an interactive lecture or inquiry based research assignment for students. It is developed so students research evidence of continental drift (Alfred Wegener) and plot the observations onto an interactive map. As the data accumulates, and plotted onto the map (grouped to stay with the continent), students match the coastlines of the continent to complete the Pangea "puzzle" as explained by the continental drift theory. All in all, students assess the f

Theory of Continental Drift Lesson and Activity
This smart notebook includes a bellwork slide with puzzle pieces, as a lead in to continental drift. It has guiding questions for the students. It then shows all the continents, with markings such as fossils, mountain ranges, glacial striations. The continents are separate pieces and can be moved around and rotated to fit together. The goal is to create Pangea and try to fit the continents together. This is a great station or whole class introduction or summary activity to continental drift

Rocks & Minerals Unit: Lesson 5: Intro to Rocks
To bridge the gap between rocks and minerals, students zoom back and explore the earth as a whole. By looking at the Earth's layers and the basics of plate tectonics first, students can then delve into the rock cycle while keeping the larger scope in mind.
Students will read and listen to rock cycle raps, analyze diagrams, play with interactives, fill out graphic organizers, and come to understand the basic mechanics of the rock cycle, as well as identifying the major types of rocks within. Be
