Students will learn about the presence of carbonates, and the presence of magnetic minerals in certain rocks.
This lesson plan includes teacher notes and three worksheets.
Success Criteria:
• conduct a test to determine the presence of calcite in a sedimentary rock • record observations in a chart using pictures • make a conclusion about the type of sedimentary rock • conduct a test to determine the presence of magnetic minerals in rocks • research types of minerals in rocks that are magnetic, record findings in a chart
