Science

WOW, I was really impressed with your rock sorting last week. I hope you all had fun collecting rocks. Lots of you also watched the video and were able to tell me about the 3 different types of natural rock.
The sheet below is here to remind you of the three natural rock types, igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic.

We will be using these 3 rock types again today and will also be learning about man-made rocks.
Task 1
I would like you to read the information below about human-made rocks and write a sentence to summarise.

Here are some examples of different rocks. Some are a little difficult to read so if you prefer you can research your own examples of igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic rocks or use the names of the ones below to find out more.


Task 2
I would like you to sort rocks into the four groups, igneous, sedimentary, metamorphic and human-made. You can use the rocks that are mentioned in this pack or you can research for yourself. You can record your work on the sheet below or draw a table of your own

Task 3
I would like you to think of some of the ways that rocks are used and what properties make it suitable for that use. The link below may help.

Complete the table to show what you have learned. I have included an example below to get you started.

Name of rockUse of rockType of rockWhich properties make it suitable?
SlateRoof TilesMetamorphicImpermeable (doesn’t let water soak through)
Splits easily into thin sheets

Task 4 (optional)
If you still have the rocks that you collected last week, you could investigate with them. Here are some things to investigate;
1.     Place each rock in a bowl of water. Which rocks float and which sink?
2.     Sprinkle water on the rocks. Which rocks are permeable? (let water soak through them)
3.     Rub the rocks against each other. Which rocks are friable? (easily crumbled)
Can any of the rocks be used to write on the pavement?
