What I already know about rocks - Worksheet
Science Resource Description
This worksheet, designed by Focus Education (UK) Ltd, encourages students to explore and document their existing knowledge about rocks and their curiosity about geological formations. The worksheet prompts learners to consider the significant role rocks play in revealing the history of Earth's formation. It serves as a starting point for students to reflect on what they already understand about rocks and to articulate questions they may have about these natural formations.
Furthermore, the worksheet guides students to identify and differentiate between the three main types of rocks found on Earth: igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks. By asking students to distinguish between these categories, the activity aims to deepen their understanding of the rock cycle and the processes that lead to the formation of each rock type. This educational resource is a useful tool for initiating a broader discussion about geology and the dynamic nature of our planet.
