HI GUYS,
This term my class is working on Earth Science. So our teacher decided to make some Sedimentary rock's made out of...
- plaster of Paris
- Sand(from our school sandpit)
- Water
- Food Coloring
- Mini Card Boxes
- shells, stones
First, we put all of the ingredients into a big bucket and then we mixed it together and then took turns to put a layer into our card boxes and let them dry for 2 days. Then we put in another layer and sometimes we put in shells and stones to make it like a sedimentary rock when we finished we had done around 5 layers and there were shells and little stones.
I noticed that ...
-The layers you couldn't really see them
-The color on the top stayed but the color in the inside faded away
The reason why we made the sedimentary rocks is because then we can see the layers inside of the rock and really be able to tell that it is a sedimentary rock.
Thank you guys for reading my blog I hope you liked it.
Goodbye
here is my video
What a fantastic blog post Mea!!!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed your video so much! Both you girls spoke so naturally and genuinely shared what you knew. I loved how you showed the rocks and shells close up to the camera as I was interested to see how the sedimentary rock had turned out after you had broken it.
What you explained in the body of your blog post also shows the readers that you made the sedimentary rocks and how you made them. These weren't naturally created by the earth. I think that's a pretty important piece of knowledge.
I hope you showed your family your post and are proud of what you created!
:) Keep being awesome,
Miss D
