1 Task K 20 minutes Divide the participants into up to five main working groups. Say that their task will be to link together many of the ideas to form a diagram of the rock cycle, similar to the process of building a rock cycle diagram at the end of session 1. They will need to use labels that are processes and some that are products/names. Slide 2.8 This task is summarised on slide 2.8. Task K: Slide 2.8 Use the materials provided to draw a complete rock cycle Some labels will be products/names: magma, sediment, etc. Some labels will be processes: weathering, pressure, sedimentation, etc. Allocate each group one of the following tasks. Handout 2.9 Handout 2.10 To represent the complete rock cycle schematically, rather than pictorially. Provide this group with the process labels on handout 2.9, and the product/name labels on handout 2.10, together with flipchart paper, pens, scissors and reusable adhesive. 68 Key Stage 3 National Strategy Strengthening teaching and learning of geological changes in Key Stage 3 science
