I made a google slides presentation on the rock cycle. I really like how you can incorporate lots of pictures as well as text and video if you want. I think that students retain information longer when they can see a visual of what they are learning. I broke it down into the three types of rocks, how they are formed and examples, as well of pictures of each type. I hope that my students will be able to identify simple rock types as well as develop a love for nature around them. My challenge to them is that when they are out on a walk or hike with their family, they can pick up a rock and think of it as more than just a rock. I want them to explore, question and appreciate.
