Make a Rock


Observing Rocks

  • What will our sense of touch tell our brain what makes a rock?  
  • How could we make a rock?  
  • What goes in a rock?

Students felt shale and sandstone rocks.  They used words such as scratchy and smooth to describe the rocks.
What could make a rock scratchy or smooth?
Sand and clay?
Could we make rocks from sand and clay?





Clay on my face?  Yes, it's science!
