    The map is really helpful cause it shows where what igneous rocks are. It's a website that will help our research about this unit.
  •  
    This is very helpful and a great website
  •  
    This is about the types of igneous rocks and how they are formed. Good website!
  •  
    I did not know that igneous comes from a Greek word meaning fire! I also did not know that there are over 700 types of igneous rocks. Very helpful, thank you Jolie
  •  
    This was really helpful!! Ignis=fire, that is a new rule to remember things!
  •  
    This a very helpful website. It tells you about the meaning of the word, the difference between intrusive and extrusive rocks, and tells you how igneous rocks are formed.
  •  
    There are three types of rock types and igneous rock is one of them. There are intrusive and extrusive igneous rocks. Most of igneous rocks are formed under Earth's crust.
  •  
    Good information on Denver's geology and the same pictures as in the accident Denver books
  •  
    This has great information about igneous rocks, which is one of the three types of rocks. It gives great information about extrusive and intrusive igneous rocks.
  •  
    This tells you a lot about igneous rocks and the other two types of rock.
  •  
    This website is very informational and explains igneous rocks very well.
  •  
    I really like that map it is very interesting.
  •  
    This is more informative about igneous rocks than articles just about extrusive rocks
  •  
    Hypabyssal rock form under the surface
  •  
    This website is very useful and helpful to learn more about igneous and extrusive rocks.
  •  
    Is the glass in ash obsidian.
  •  
    The map helped me a lot!!!
  •  
    The map was really useful and I didn't know that igneous came from a Latin word meaning fire.
  •  
    This was very helpful. It was very informative about how the igneous rocks formed.
  •  
    Igneous and metamorphic rocks make up 90-95% of the top 16 km of the Earth's crust by volume
  •  
    I learned that hypabyssal rock forms under the surface of the Earth's crust.
  •  
    Igneous rock is one of the 3 main rock types and Ignis means fire in Latin.

    Pretty interesting and give a short good explanation of igneous rock.
  •  
    I didn't know that igneous was ignis in Latin and it means fire

    Talks about how Denver is like an onion and the stuff we talked about during class.
  •  
    Applies Denver onion idea to sandstone below Boulder
  •  
    This is a very good website about what we talked about in class like about Denver being an onion.
  •  
    Gives good info in a very simple way.
  •  
    Wherever rocks of earths crust are visible, geology can be interpreted. This gives good examples and lots of details.
  •  
    A good website to review everything we learned in class about Denver's geology.
  •  
    This is really relevant to what we're learning! Only this is boulder... And we're studying Denver but its basically the same so this is really helpful and not so hard to understand!
  •  
    This site went over Boulder geology in a very advanced and long way. I learned about all the geological periods and the effects they had on life in Boulder. I was not aware that there was a period known as the Pennsylvania Period.
  •  
    I had no idea what the Pennsylvania period was until now. This is a really helpful site, but a little complex.
  •  
    This tells you about boulder geology in a complexed way.
  •  
    Tells about the geology in boulder.
  •  
    I discovered when reading this that the earliest rocks in Boulder County are 1.7-1.8 billion years old.
  •  
    Its a good site that goes through a lot of different rock layers.
  •  
    The oldest rocks in Colorado are 1.7-1.8 billion years old.

    NASA analysis on the rocks

    Has something to do with the unit except it is about mars, and the first rock from mars brought back from earth.
  •  
    This has some relavence to the unit but its about rocks on mars
  •  
    It is cool have they have certain instruments to test rocks on mars and they actually named the rock that they tested
  •  
    I thought it was cool how the ChemCam found compositions each with 14 target points on the rock, hitting different mineral grains within it.
  •  
    It's kind of weird that they name a rock "Jake". Very interesting web site.
  •  
    This is an interesting website. It's kind of weird that they named the rock. Why would they do that?
  •  
    What mars rover is this from

    Cute clam
  • ...42 more comments...
  •  
    It was cute and funny.
  •  
    It was funny and cute, but it doesn't really tells anything about the clam just how it swims. But I like it.
  •  
    That's cute
  •  
    Funny video but completely unrelated.
  •  
    I love the clam, but it doesn't help our unit.
  •  
    Cute clam, but it's not really related to our unit...
  •  
    This was useless, it was not cute at all, it was a waste of my time!!!
  •  
    Adorable clam but doesn't relate to the unit.
  •  
    It is so cute but has nothing in common with what we're learning.
  •  
    This was not a useful video it could have been improved by saying how it was swimming, or more detail.
  •  
    The clam is really cool and "cute" but it has nothing to do with what were learning.
  •  
    This I cool but it has absolutely nothing to do with what we are learning
  •  
    This is very interesting and it could be a topic for more study however, it may not be appropriate for this topic.
  •  
    The clam was supper funny looking and looked like it was just opening and closing its mouth, but really had nothing to do with what we are talking about it.
  •  
    I never knew that clams swam like that. It is very odd
  •  
    This was interesting because I never knew clams could swim!
  •  
    Has little to do with ancient Denver's, they turned into fossils. Interesting, cute, and disgusting. This video shows a little clam swimming @ YouTube.
  •  
    This clam is so weird yet cute!! But it doesn't relate to our unit
  •  
    I didn't think clams could even swim!
  •  
    I thought clams just sit on the ocean floor for their whole lives. I didn't know they could swim.
  •  
    That clam is very strange but it is cool how clams swim and it is pretty cool colors
  •  
    The only reason I new clams swam like this was sponge bob!
  •  
    Very strange......
  •  
    Cute clam!!!!!!!!! Swims with mouth open. Why does it have stringy things coming from it
  •  
    The clam swims with its mouth open and on the top. It looks like it is pulling itself up and then it kind of goes down. (It swims like the clams in spongebob!)
  •  
    It is cool how the clam eats and then spits out the "extra" and moves the oposit way of the pushing out.
  •  
    Chase, writing that was a waste of time and u didn't have to watch it!
  •  
    This is a cute WASTE OF TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  •  
    I have only thought that they float on the ocean floor, but they can swim. It is cool how they go opposite of the current so they can move.
  •  
    This doesn't really have much to do with what we're learning, but it's still really cute and interesting how clams can swim, and not just float around on the ocean floor.
  •  
    I did not know that clams could swim. It is fascinating how they have developed a way to swim just by pushing water around.
  •  
    This clam is very interesting because it is small and can swim. This would be very helpful for avoiding predators, but it doesn't have much to do with our unit.
  •  
    Thats interesting, i didn't realize clams could swim like that.
  •  
    It is scary that when you swallow sea water you swallow thousands of little sea clams too.
  •  
    But there is still some educational value- it came up in disscussion
  •  
    That was actually cool, but it had no relation to Anxient Denvers.
  •  
    This was kinda cute but totally useless with what were learning.
  •  
    That... Is... Awesome!!! But I agree that is almost utterly useless.
  •  
    That pretty awesome!!! But it is useless.
  •  
    I did not know that a clam could swim I thought that they just sat on the ocean floor there whole life.
  •  
    This relates to our unit because clams fossilized plus it is interesting to see a clam swim.
  •  
    I did not know that clams swam!
  •  
    strange but interesting
  •  
    This is utterly useless to what we are studying. This shows how a clam swims, and we are learning about geology.

    This had good information but very little, it told how extrusive rocks are formed.

  •  
    This has good information and talks about how igneous rocks are extrusive and how they are formed.
  •  
    Wikipedia has good information on extrusive rocks, but very little.
  •  
    This related to ancient Denver's and hands the information on extrusive rocks on a plate. Interesting and compares to intrusive rocks.
  •  
    Good information
  •  
    Great info, very little. I also found out that wiki might not be up any longer. I did not know that magma cools quicker in open airs or under seawater.
  •  
    I thought the information on the intrusive and extrusive igneous rocks was interesting and helpful.
  •  
    A little short not enough info. What it has is ok.
  •  
    Really good info but not enough.
  •  
    This has very detailed information on how extrusive rocks are formed. Magma cools quicker out in the open or under seawater!
  •  
    The obsidian has no time to form crystals because it solidifies instantly.
  •  
    This has useful information, yet it has very little. It sums up this process in a simple and understandable way to all.
  •  
    I wouldn't say Wikipedia is the best source to be using. Anyone can go on there no add false facts.
  •  
    Great information but it is a little short.
  •  
    Igneous volcanic rock and it forms when lava from inside the earth flows out

Ashes to Diamonds! - 4 views

    Weird

    It tells how you can get ashes of someone and ge tem made into dimands so weird.
  •  
    That's weird
  •  
    I would make my uncle into a diamond and then I would take him everywhere. A little irrelevant though, but very interesting.
  •  
    When you think of having an adventure spreading a loved ones ashes, you never think of turning them into diamonds. Weird. But really cool
  •  
    It's definitely weird, but it's interesting how you can always carry your loved ones with you.
