"Grand Canyon Rock Correlations, Day One"
Bellwork:
•1) Are sedimentary rocks in horizontal or vertical layers?
•2) The 3 types of sedimentary rock are…
•3) Which sedimentary rock is softest?
- Discuss North and Nankoweap Canyons and what happens when you cut into something with layers ==> you can see the layers inside, ex: using a knife to cut into a cake exposes its layers
- Fill in names of the rock layers on the "Grand Canyon Rocks" worksheet (workbook pg. 35)
- Cut out the rock columns and correlate the layers (line them up) on pg. 37 ==> draw in a code (given in class) that represents these layers
- Result: Grand Canyon Rock Column Lineup
