 * 1) **Students completed a study of the three forms of rocks: igneous, metamorphic, and sedimentary.**
 * 2) **We focused on how sedimentary rock is formed, especially the process of cementation.**
 * 3) **We looked at pictures of Bryce Canyon that we found on the internet. The students looked at rock formations that they would like to recreate.**
 * 4) **We created "sandstone': heat one part water and one part cornstarch in an old pan until mixed and beginning to warm. Add two parts sand. Heat mixture until it begins to thicken. Let cool slightly, and then sculpt. Let dry.**
 * 5) **Students worked together to research and write short articles on the formation of sandstone and Bryce Canyon.**
 * 6) **We then created a class diorama using our sculptures. Pictures from the Internet could be used as backgrounds of the dioramas, to decorate the outside of the diorama box, or as added displays.**
 * 7) **All of the items were displayed for the school.**
