In Year 4 we have been learning about the Rock Cycle. We began our Science lesson today with a Kahoot to go over facts that we had previously learnt about rocks. We then used play dough to explain the process of how the different rocks are formed. We began with igneous rock that is created when magma cools to form rock. We then created sedimentary rock which is made when layers of sediment settle on top of each. Over millions of years the bottom layers turn into rock. Finally, we put heat on pressure on the play-dough to create metamorphic rock.
