rocks and minerals cookie experiment!

In class, we have started a new unit in class. rocks and minerals!

To start, we watched a short video about geologists. then, we did a cookie experiment!

Our task was to use 2 toothpicks to excavate the chocolate chips out of two chocolate chip cookies. the cookies were different though. one was hard and the other was soft. we also had a sheet where we wrote our predictions.

I predicted that I would find ten chips on the top of the soft cookie and four on the bottom.

In the end, my conclusion I found nine chips on the top and four on the bottom. I was off by one chocolate chip! Just one!
