| | Rocks--Earth Science lesson plan (grades 6-8)--DiscoverySchool.com |
| | Have students investigate what types of rocks and rock formations are common in their home region. | | | Knows processes involved in the rock cycle (e.g., old rocks at the surface gradually weather and form sediments that are buried, then compacted, heated, and often recrystallized into new rock; this new rock is eventually brought to the surface by the forces that drive plate motions, and the rock cycle continues). | | | Encourage students to do research about sedimentary rock and the rock cycle before they begin their stories, to be sure they do not convey any incorrect information to younger readers. |

| | Chimney Rock Park near Hedersonville, NC |
| | Below you will find the account of what creationists like myself believe happened to cause these rock formations, although we do not believe any rock is millions of years old, these formations are still very unique and show the majestic work of an awesome GOD. | | | Take the day to experience Chimney Rock and its surrounding wonders, Hickory Nut Falls, which cascades 404 feet down at steep granite cliff, and Inspirations Point. | | | The uniformitarian assumption—that today’s slow erosion rates that take place through solid rock are the same as has always been—is faulty logic, and ignores catastrophes like the Flood. |

| | Rock paintings, on the other hand, are most common in areas where there are caves or rock shelters in outcrops of granite and in sedimentary rocks formations of limestone, sandstone and quartzite. | | | Rock engravings in all traditions were made most commonly by removing the weathered outer surface of rocks such as dolerite to create a colour contrast with the underlying unweathered rock (Dowson 1992). | | | THE CONTENT of the rock art varies within the region, but there are several themes that are sufficiently widespread to indicate broad, high-level geographical and temporal continuity within the Southern African hunter-gatherer, herder, and agriculturist belief systems over the period in which rock paintings and rock engravings were done. |
