  core. 
2.2-
  I can use the rock cycle chart to compare the formation process of the three
  types of rocks. 
2.4
  – I can explain how rocks and fossils are used to understand the age and
  geological history of the Earth, by using timelines, relative dating, and
  rock layers.

Independent
  Work: 
The independent work for these learning targets will be
  addressed through the small group station work.

Conferences:  
Conference time will be spent looking at students change
  in grade from last test to present. 
Conferences will also address science writing related
