Did you know there are 20,000 types of rocks on our planet? See how they are classified with our paper models of the #RockCycle, #Igneous, #Sedimentary & #Metamorphic Rocks & #Minerals too! Details here: buff.ly/Rua05Ah

Once you know how to read rocks, you'll never look at them in the same way again! Our Rock Cycle paper model shows typical features of rocks of different origins. Use it like a puzzle or for a fabulous display! Find out more here: buff.ly/oleCku8

Our geologist teacher retired and gifted these specimens to me. Not only are they awesome but I finally have a rock cheat sheet so I don’t have to call everything andesite #geology #physicalscience #rockcycle #EDUSky
Earth's #RockCycle is driven by two powerful forces! 🌍 Internal heat (plate tectonics) creates igneous & metamorphic rocks. Solar energy (hydrologic cycle) powers weathering & erosion for sedimentary rocks. It's a continuous dance of creation & transformation! #EarthSystemScience
My Boss said we are probs not going to teach the rock cycle to kids and it is likely to be ignored in the curriculum for science at my school. I said that really sucked.
"Why?"
"Because rocks are amazing and everyone takes them for granite.."
Actual staff meeting conversation.

Turn the rock cycle into a puzzle with our paper model! Students have to organise the #rocks, where they originate & what they can become into this flow chart. Makes a great display too! Find out more here: https://bit.ly/2LlGXlh

Our Rock Cycle model is like a puzzle that students can manipulate and learn about different rocks and how they are formed. Features photos of real rocks to help students compare their properties. Click here for details: https://bit.ly/2LlGXlh
