Comment on 'Minerals 4 Kids'
This website was so fun to look at and it could be so much fun for students to use in a classroom. The site is great for teachers to explain to their class how the rock cycle works. The pictures help students to see the circle the rock cycle creates. I would use this site in a powerpoint presentation. This information and the picture of the rock cycle is easy to follow and great for the students to see the difference of each rock. The information that is given in the site is easy to follow and provides a detailed illustration of how a rock cycle works. I also liked the engaging questions at the end that ask the student how to tell one rock from another.
Teaching Tip on 'The CERES S-COOL Project'
This is a great classroom resource, even if you are not going to participate in the project. There are many useful links on the site that can help students understand how clouds relate to weather and how it is connected to the water cycle. I think it would be a very useful and worthwhile activity to do with your students.
It can be used to meet Minnesota's Academic science standard grade 8 Strand III Earth and Space Science, The student will investigate how the atmosphere interacts with the Earth system. It can help you meet most of the benchmarks for this standard as well either through the activity or through the teacher and student links provided on this site.
