Geology

The past few weeks our class has been learning about geology. Our teacher

had brought in heaps of rocks, that after watching an educational video, we had to identify them as either igneous, sedimentary or metamorphic.

Since my Dad worked as a contractor, my teacher Whaia Nic asked me if I might be able to bring some rocks of his to show the class. So over the next few days I brought two rocks I found that looked interesting and a chart with small pieces of rocks stuck to it. For example, it had quartz, limonite, native copper and asbestos - which you weren't allowed to touch because it carried some kind of poison.
