D. DEVELOPMENTAL
Day 1
PRE-TEST None
ACQUIRE (35 minutes)  Introduce the lesson briefly by stating that they will
be learning about CLASSIFICATIONS OF ROCKS.
Relate the motivational activity to the lesson of the
day.
 Teacher plays video about the classification of
rocks.
Questions to be asked after watching the video:
a. What are the different classifications of Rocks
based on the video that you watched?
b. How they differ from each other?
c. How can we classify rocks?
 The students will be given more examples about
rocks.

Content:
Rocks- aggregates of one or more minerals.
 Rocks undergo processes that transforms them
from one type to another it is called as Rock Cycle.
Rock Classifications
 Rocks are classified on the basis of the mode of
formation. The three rock types are igneous,
sedimentary and metamorphic rocks.
1. Igneous rocks - rocks that are formed from the
solidification of molten rock material (magma or lava).
Molten rock material can solidify below the surface of the
earth (plutonic igneous rocks) or at the surface of the Earth
(volcanic igneous rocks).
 Minerals are formed during the crystallization of
the magma. Note that the rate of cooling is one of
the most important factors that control crystal size
 and the texture of the rock in general.
 Magma is a molten rock material beneath the
surface of the earth. Lava is molten rock material
extruded to the surface of the earth through
volcanic or fissure eruptions.
A. Plutonic or intrusive rocks
 It is from solidified magma underneath the earth
 The gradual lowering of the temperature gradient at
depth towards the surface would cause slow
cooling/crystallization.
 It has a Phaneritic texture
Examples: granite, diorite, gabbro
B. Volcanic or extrusive rocks
 It is from solidified lava at or near the surface of the
earth
 Fast rate of cooling/crystallization due to huge
variance in the temperature between Earth’s surface
and underneath
 Common textures: aphanitic, porphyritic and
vesicular
Examples: rhyolite, andesite, basalt
2. Sedimentary rocks- These are rocks that formed
through the accumulation, compaction, and cementation of
sediments. They generally form at surface or near surface
conditions.
 Sedimentary processes at or near the surface of the
Earth include: weathering of rocks, sediment
transport and deposition, compaction and
cementation
 Factors in sedimentary processes: weathering and
transport agents (water, wind ice)
 Common sedimentary features: strata and fossils
 Strata: >1cm is called bedding and anything less is
called lamination; layering is the result of a change
in grain size and composition; each layer represents
a distinct period of deposition.
 Fossils: remains and traces of plants and animals
that are preserved in rocks
Examples of Sedimentary Rocks: sandstone and limestone
A. Non-clastic / Chemical/Biochemical – derived from
sediments that precipitated from concentrated solutions
(e.g. seawater) or from the accumulation of biologic or
organic material (e.g. shells, plant material). They are
further classified on the basis of chemical composition.
B. Clastic/terrigenous - form from the accumulation and
lithification of sediments derived from the breakdown of
pre-existing rocks. They are further classified according to
dominant grain size.
 3. Metamorphic rocks - rocks that form from the
transformation of pre-existing rocks (igneous, sedimentary,
or metamorphic rocks) through the process of
metamorphism. Metamorphism can involve changes in the
physical and chemical properties of rocks in response to
heat, pressure, and chemically active fluids. They are
commonly formed underneath the earth through
metamorphism.
Examples of Metamorphic rocks: Slate and Marble

Day 2
ACQUIRE ( 35 minutes)  Introduce the lesson briefly by stating that they will
be learning about how the products of weathering are
carried away by erosion and deposited elsewhere.
 The teacher will play a video about weathering,
erosion and decomposition.
Content:
Different surface processes (e.g. weathering and erosion)
operate simultaneously at different rates which shapes the
earth as we see today. These surface processes are called
Exogenic Processes.
 These are powered by the energy coming from the
sun.
Weathering is the breakdown of rocks at the earth’s surface
by natural forces.
Three types of Weathering
1. Mechanical weathering- is a process wherein rocks are
broken down into smaller pieces without changing its
chemical composition due to different temperatures and
water.
2. Chemical weathering- is a process wherein rock
materials are changed into other substances that have
different physical and chemical compositions.
3. Biological weathering - is a process when living things,
such as insects and roots of the trees, contribute to the
disintegration of rock materials.
Erosion happens as a result of action of water, wind, and ice
in their various forms like rainfall, snowfall, glaciers,
hailstorm, tsunamis, avalanches, sandstorms, wave currents,
and wave action.
Types of erosion
1. Water erosion is a type of erosion where the water carries
the sediments to different parts of the bodies of water such as
rivers.
2. Wind erosion happens when light materials, such as small
rocks and pebbles, are carried by wind to different places.
3. Glacial erosion happens when the ice moves downhill
and plucks out chunks of rocks and causes scraping between
the ice and the rock.
4. Soil erosion happens when the top soil is removed and
leaves the soil infertile. This is caused by wind or flood in an
area.

Mass wasting — the downslope movement of soil, rock, and

regolith under the direct influence of gravity
Factors that control mass wasting processes include:
 As the slope angle increases, the tendency to slide
down the slope becomes greater.
  Role of water: adds weight to the slope, has the
ability to change angle of repose, reduces friction on
a sliding surface, and water pore pressure reduces
shear strength of materials.
Deposition occurs when a river loses its capacity to transport
sediments. With decrease in velocity and competence,
sediments start to settle out. River deposits are sorted by
particle size.
 Deposition is the laying down of sediments to its
depositional environment or final destination.

The materials that are products of weathering will undergo

the process of erosion or the transportation of weathered
materials through wind, water, or earth’s movement, such as
earthquakes.
Ultimately, these materials, after being eroded, will undergo
deposition. This is the technical term that is used when
eroded weathered material will be deposited or layered down
somewhere.
