Year 3 (Class 8) - Science - The Rock Cycle

Image of Year 3 (Class 8) - Science - The Rock Cycle

Today we started our new science topic, rocks! We used starburst to show how the rock cycle works by turning sediments into bigger rocks using heat and pressure.

We then identified different rocks using a key. Finally, we studied a single rock and observed its properties.

We looked at…
