		<description><![CDATA[THIS WEEK&#8217;S ADVENTURES:
This week are learning how Earth&#8217;s surface changes due to the dynamic duo: Weathering and Erosion. Weathering is the breakdown of rocks due to mechanical/physical weathering or chemical weathering. Mechanical weathering is rock breaking down but keeping its chemical composition. This can occur through plant growth, abrasion, ice wedging, animal action, and release [...]]]></description>

An igneous rocks forms when magma or lava hardens. [...]]]></description>

Next, students learned the 8 ways that geologist can identify minerals: C3DFHLS- Color, Cleavage, Crystal structure, Density, Fracture, Hardness, Luster, and Streak.  Students [...]]]></description>

This week we wrapped up Earthquakes.  We learned that seismic waves are broken into 3 types. The instrument that is used to record the ground movement during an earthquake is called a seismograph.  The first wave to arrive is called the P wave or primary wave.  It arrives first and moves like a slinky for [...]]]></description>

This week students are continuing their ride along Earth&#8217;s bumper cars. Students will learn that the Earth is under stress just like HUMANS are. Students can really relate because many of them had stress coming up to present during their VOLCANO projects. The Earth&#8217;s crust undergoes Tension, Compression, and Shearing. Stress puts pressure of the [...]]]></description>

Students had an awesome time learning the parts of a volcano (magma chamber, pipe, vent, crater, lava flow, pyroclastic flow, ash cloud).
