The Rock Cycle: Violet + Red

This morning, the Violet Band taught the Red Band about the rock cycle.

On Monday, we learned about the rock cycle. On Tuesday, we brainstormed how to take that information and make it accessible for babies (they're only five!). Last night, we came up with a master plan to teach them. And today, we made it work.The sedimentary station used legos to build layers and break them apart.

The igneous station used chocolate "lava" to cool and form rocks.

The metamorphic station drew diagrams of heat and pressure, then used their hands to form potato latkes with their own pressure and heat.

Brightworks is a magical place.
