Rocks are constantly undergoing changes;
some rapid and others are gradual. There
are three rock types which are based upon
how they are formed: igneous,
metamorphic and sedimentary. Rocks
within each rock type are differentiated by
their size, shape and texture. The Rock
Cycle describes how the three rock types are
related and are able to change from one type
to another.
How can the processes that
change one form of rock
into another be described?

Teacher Notes:
Objective: Students will be to analyze the rock cycle in order to
describe the processes that change one form of rock into another
Differentiation: All students complete the same class work and
assessment and use the same web resource however they are
divided into gold and silver star. Gold stars read the site without
any assistance whereas for silver stars the site

Maryland State Curriculum Goal:
Standard 2.0 Earth/Space Science: Students will use scientific skills and
processes to explain the chemical and physical interactions (i.e., natural
forces and cycles, transfer of energy) of the environment, Earth, and the
universe that occur over time.
Topic A: Materials and Processes That Shape A Planet
Indicator 1: Identify and describe that some changes in Earth's surface occur
rapidly while other changes occur very slowly.
Indicator
Time Management Strategies: It is suggested that this activity be
completed over the course of two class periods. This activity
could also be conducted in groups of two students.
Technology Infusion: The students will need to be introduced to dropdown menus and entering the text into the enabled areas.
Students should also be familiar with opening hyperlinks in both
the documents and in the Power point presentation. The
students should also be familiar with tabs (sheets in excel),
entering text in boxes, clicking into boxes
AVID Strategy: The following AVID strategies are supported in this
lesson: inquiry based learning, quick write (reaction and
analysis) and use of Costas and Bloom questioning.
Learning Styles: Field Dependent, Field independent, Visual and
Reflective Learners, Global Understanding
4. Differentiate among sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic rocks based upon
the processes by which they are formed.
Objectives
d. Cite features that can be used as evidence to distinguish among the three types
of rocks and relate these features to the processes that form each rock type.
e. Describe the processes that change one form of rock into another (rock cycle).
Common Core Standards :Reading Standards for Literacy in Science and
Technical Subjects 6–12
Key Ideas and Details
1. Cite specific textual evidence to
support analysis of science and technical
texts.
Craft and Structure
4. Determine the meaning of symbols, key terms,
and other domain-specific words and phrases as
they are used in a specific scientific or technical
context relevant to grades 6–8 texts and topics.
Integration of Knowledge and Ideas
7. Integrate quantitative or technical
information expressed in words in a text
with a version of that information
expressed visually (e.g., in a flowchart,
diagram, model, graph, or table).
Range of Reading and Level of Text
Complexity
10. By the end of grade 8, read and comprehend
science/technical texts in the grades 6–8 text
complexity band independently and proficiently.
