This resource turns the rock cycle into a complete, ready to use review for Grade 6-8 earth science, covering the same NGSS standard from three different angles.
Sample questions include "Which process can lead to the formation of fossils?", "Which process is primarily responsible for the formation of sedimentary layers?", and "What happens to rocks when they are subjected to extreme heat and pressure?"
Because the three worksheets share the same content in three different formats, you can spread them across the week: one for diagnosis, one for practice, and one for assessment, without repeating a single question.
This set is part of a NGSS aligned earth science unit. The unit also covers Earth's Solid Materials, Igneous Rock Formation, Sedimentary Rock Formation, Metamorphic Rock Formation, Weathering and Erosion, and Plate Tectonics and Rock, all in the same three worksheet format, so your classroom routine stays familiar while the topic changes.
Suitable for Grade 6-8 earth science classes, and for review at any point in the school year. This set is aligned to NGSS standard MS-ESS2-1.
