Set
T1 gives oral directions
for stations as an
anticipatory guide while
T2 utilizes graphic
organizer as a visual
direction to stations in
heterogeneous groups.
When in station groups:
T2 will ask students to
guess which item in the
exhibition comes first in
the rock cycle. Students
will then view
video/power-point and
discuss rock cycle using
items from exhibit for
real life experience.
T1TW take out a piece
of bubble gum, hold it
up and say "This
represents a
Sedimentary Rock." Put
it in your mouth and
begin chewing it.
T1TW ask the
students, "What am I
doing?" Of course they
will say chewing gum.
T1TW Ask them to
think scientifically and
ask them, "What am I
doing to the gum."
Purpose/Goals/
Objectives
*TLW demonstrate an
understanding of how a
rock can move through
different stages.
TLW demonstrate a "Rock
Cycle" by applying heat
and pressure to gum and
then by putting gum and
"Pop Rocks" in their
mouth.

and "Pop Rocks" (one for each
student).

Copy of vocabulary terms
(Leading questions: Is
it cold inside my mouth,
NO, so I am applying
heat, YES! What is
happening when my
teeth come down on the
gum? I am applying
pressure. So is the gum
being changed? Yes!)
Pull the gum out of your
mouth and place it on a
clean dish.
T1TW open up a packet
of "Pop Rocks" and pour
some onto the gum,
Then squeeze or fold
them into the gum ad
hold up the gum and say
this represents an
Igneous Rock. Now,
place the gum (igneous
rock) in your mouth and
chew. Ask the students:
What am I doing?
Hopeful they will
answer, applying heat
and pressure. Here
pressure is more intense
to crush the "Pop Rocks"
(crystals). Chew until all
the "Pop Rocks" are
mixed in as part of the
gum. Pull out the gum
and say this represents a
