YouTube Videos

Here are a couple of YouTube videos I found pertaining to my unit of Pebbles, Sand, and Silt.  

Rocks and Soil Song

This video is a song that is catchy.  It demonstrates how rocks and can be made into sand and clay.  It also gives examples of real world objects made of rock materials.  This video could be easily shown at the beginning of my unit of study to introduce students to some vocabulary terms.


Life Cycle of a Rock

This video goes through the life cycle of a rock.  It starts with a picture of a boulder and ends with a picture of silt.  I like this video because I will be teaching my students about these different earth materials and it blows up the picture to make it big enough so everyone can see.  This video would be useful at the beginning of my unit to introduce vocabulary or at the end of the unit as a review.
