A Sediment's Journey
Discourse
1. What properties did you notice about each rock?
2. How are the rocks similar?
3. How are the rocks different?
Scientists describe the PROPERTIES of rocks!
Property- a trait of chracteristic of something.

Procedure
1. Write "Question," underline it and add a :
2. Write today's science question, "What are the properties of different rocks and minerals?"
3. Write "Data," underline it and add a :
Investigation
1. Select one rock and ask the question,
"What properties do you notice about this rock?"
Answer the question yourself and then pass it on.
2. Each person will identify one property of the rock until it comes back around the table. Then place it on the paper.
3. Now, it is the next person's chance to choose a rock.
4. When you are finished, you may each choose one rock and draw it in your notebooks under Data.
What type of rocks are these? What is your evidence?
