Rocks!

This morning and for the next three Wednesdays, Lilah's dad will be coming in and teaching us about rocks.  Mr. Matt is a geologists and here are some things he taught us today:

*The rock cycle is a naturally occurring solid group of one or more minerals.

*A mineral is a naturally occurring solid with a crystal structure.

*Minerals make up the earth.

*Geologists observe and record

*The most important/common mineral is Plagioclase Feldaspar.

We also got to look at and touch different rocks.  Mr. Matt was a hit!
