Part I: Writing the Story (15 Points) Now that you have made physical models of different types of rocks and how they form and also played the Rock Cycle Game, it’s time for you to use your knowledge to develop your own model of the rock cycle. You will write an adventure story that chronicles the journey of a rock through two transformations. In other words:
starting rock type…transformation…new rock type…transformation…new rock type.
Here are the criteria for your story:

Story Criteria:
Choose a rock type to start with—igneous, metamorphic, or sedimentary
Choose a place/location on Earth where the journey begins
Describe the processes involved for each transformation the rock undergoes
Describe the energy source that drives each process/transformation
Describe the place/location on Earth where each process/transformation occurs
Describe the amount of time the process/transformation takes
Identify the new rock type formed after each process/transformation
The story should be four paragraphs long:
The first paragraph describes the original rock, where it is located and sets the stage for the journey.
The second paragraph describes the first transformation process
The third paragraph describes the second transformation process
The last paragraph explains the timescale—why the reader cannot see the transformations actually taking place. End the story with a “cliff-hanger” by leaving the reader wondering what is next for the rock!

A good way to organize your story is to fold a piece of paper into four squares and write the main ideas for each paragraph in the different squares of the paper. Have fun with the story; write it like an amazing adventure full of danger and excitement!

Part II: Flowcharting the Story (10 points)
Once you have written your story, create a flowchart that depicts the path of your rock. Here are the criteria for the flowchart:

Flowchart Criteria:
Must contain all of the above criteria components of the story
Use arrows to depict the path the rock takes
Use labels, symbols, and/or images to indicate all processes and energy sources

Part III: Analyzing the Flowcharts (10 Points)
Now it’s time to compare your flowchart with those of your classmates. Your teacher will instruct you on how to view your classmates’ flowcharts. After viewing them, what do you notice? Do they all look the same? Write a statement summarizing what you notice about the rock cycle flowcharts in your class and how this relates to the actual rock cycle.
