Thoughts of the day- September 28

What did we do today?

  • Listen to reading was added to our Daily 5.  We can use either Raz-Kids or Tumblebooks.
  • In science, we made a rock cycle.  A volcano erupts and spits out magma, then the magma cools down and hardens and become an igneous rock.  The igneous erodes into sediment and through deposition and cementation the sediment hardens into layers becoming a sedimentary rock.  The sedimentary rock with heat and pressure turns to a metamorphic rock, which can melt back into magma.
  • Tomorrow we are going to make pet rocks and write a story about them. 
What questions do we have after today?
  • How much money are we going to raise for Terry Fox tomorrow?
  • How long does it take for a rock to go through the entire rock cycle?
  • I wonder what kinds of rocks people will bring tomorrow?  What will they look like?
  • Has the big rock in Okotoks gone through the rock cycle?  Where is it in the rock cycle?  What type of rock is it?
