Washing Rocks

In science today we worked with Ms. Vanterpool to observe what happens to rocks when we put them in water. We have been studying 3 different rocks: scoria, tuff and basalt. The students were making excellent observations when they put the rocks in water, noticing that the rocks changed color, one of the rocks made bubbles, and the water changed color from the dust from the rocks. Enjoy the pictures:

Lamel carefully putting his rocks in the water.

Meiko and Emmanuel were amazed at the bubbles from the rock.

Juan was telling Ms. Vanterpool the great things he was noticing.
