Remember… BIG SCIENCE IDEAS are the ones you will want to remember 40 years from now.
Some of the BIG SCIENCE IDEAS from the Magic School Bus Rocks and Rolls:
• Sometimes the water freezes and cracks rock.- Hannah
• Water and erosion carves and breaks rocks by the cracks so when rocks have cracks water gets inside. When it gets cold it chops and breaks the rock. -Matthew
• Water can carve rock like water carved the Grand Canyon. -Aden
• Water makes boulders smooth and break.- Leandra
• Water breaks rock because water wears out the rock and the rock breaks apart.- Justin
• Water can move big boulders but the water has to be strong enough to move the boulder.- Rubin
• The water and rocks cracked the statue and made the statue fall down the mountain to the stream. – Dalisha
• The erosion is caused by the water that is from the winding river. -Micheala
• Water can take rocks and cut in a lot of little pieces of rocks.- Vangie
• If water goes fast enough it can break down the boulders. –Ethan
• When water goes into a crack, and it freezes, the rocks break apart. – CC
• Snow and water can break big rocks. –Julian
• It can’t happen instantly it could take over 15 million years to carve out stuff like the Grand Canyon.- Jonathan
