The 8th Grade Science students were given a rock collection with various igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic rock samples. To confront the challenge of organizing this data, the students had to make a database where they could record the characteristics of 15 samples. Once completed, they did sorts and finds to help them see patterns in the samples they had observed. The students took four days to complete this assignment.
