6th grade

One of the types of rocks that we learn about is sedimentary. This activity is to demonstrate what can happen to rocks as they are pressed together. Using geological rock terms - cementation or compaction?
The fun part it we used two different types of snack cakes. The results were pretty cool and students not only got to see the effect of pressure on these "rocks"....
They also got to eat the results!
