Introduction Estimated Time: 5

Students will enter the classroom and put their things away in their cubbies and find their
seats. After they find their seats and get situated, students will be directed on the board to
get out their science notebooks and flip to a new page and label it “Rocks”, then wait quietly
for further instruction. I will explain the necessary background information to the students. I
will then preview the different responsibilities.

I will then direct the students to put everything away and make their way back to their desks.
I will ask the students if they have any questions about the lesson. Then students will tell me
something that they learned during the lesson or let me know if they have any questions
about the lesson in an exit ticket on Google Forms. There will be a section of the Form that
has questions about the lesson so I can see what they learned that day in class.
