Rock On! Innovative Lesson Design for 5th and 6th Graders

This collaborative lesson design by web designers, media specialists, and elementary school teachers is tailored for fifth and sixth-grade students, focusing on the exploration of different rock types. Through interactive activities like the Rock Classification Chart and the Rock Cycle Chart Graphic, students engage with information seeking theories and practices, reinforce knowledge-building, and develop critical thinking skills by making connections between the lesson content and their environment. The curriculum project, "Rock On!" encourages creativity, design exploration, and vocabulary usage while enhancing students' ability to navigate websites for basic and unorganized information. Join us at the Poster Viewing to delve deeper into this exciting project!
