Description

“Volcanic Rocks”
Grades 5-6

“Volcanic Rocks” Grades 5-6  is a 2-page science and literacy lesson pack for Upper Primary School.  This worksheet set starts with a text for independent reading.

Writing tasks follow to:

>> Reinforce work on the topic in earlier school years.
>> Introduce new words. This forms a good basis for similar work in higher year levels.
>> Students can relate to the topic through the volcanic rock around the home – bench tops* and pumice.

This worksheet pack suits any learning and teaching situation from classroom to home education.

*installing new kitchen bench tops using coloured rock is now banned in Australia because of health risks to the workers.
