Colour in our rocks
Friday, October 14th
On Thursday we had a closer look at our rock collections. We used magnifying glasses to help us identify all of the colours in our rocks. We learned that rocks are usually made up of more than one mineral. The colours that we see in the rocks are the minerals.
