One of Our Favorite Books
A classic by Arizona resident writer Byrd Baylor.
With unforgettable illustrations by Peter Parnall, Camp Cooper educator Mariah (aka Butterfly) reads "Everybody Needs A Rock" with permission from the author. A special activity follows.
We hope you enjoyed the book!
We love to read this book at Camp Cooper, where we are surrounded by desert rocks!
Basic Geology
Watch the video below (by our friends at Sci Show Kids) and complete the worksheets to see what you learned!
The Rock Cycle
Igneous, Sedimentary and Metamorphic rocks can be converted into one another through processes of heat and pressure.
See if you can answer these four questions about the Rock Cycle using the description and diagram.
Rock Crossword
With everything you have learned so far, apply your knowledge in this fun (and challenging!) crossword puzzle.
Designed by Camp Cooper staff.
