Lesson 3: Rocks and Minerals
This lesson covers: describing the
rock cycle. You will explain that
there are sedimentary, igneous,
and metamorphic rocks, each
with distinct properties, and that
rocks are made of one or more
minerals. You will also identify
minerals by their properties.

Lessons 6-7: Plate Tectonics and
Landforms
These lessons cover: understanding the
interior structure of the Earth and plate
tectonics, and explaining geological events
and cycles that occur due to plate motion.
Describing how landforms and rock layers
are created, and understanding how the
three types of plate boundaries cause
different landforms.
