A rockin' experiment!

Lesson: Science

Class: Marsden - Year 3 Year: 2024 - 2025

In Science, Marsden class have been learning all about rocks! We conducted an experiment into the properties of rocks, where we tested:

  • How hard the rocks are
  • Whether they absorbed water
  • Whether they fizzed when coming into contact with an acidic substance 
  • We also observed them closely 

We then considered what the results meant, in relation to whether the rocks were Sedimentary, Metamorphic or Igneous.
