Today's activity is inspired by a scene from the first novel chronicling the adventures of Harry Potter and his friends. Here is a scene from the first movie, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone:
Students are introduced to the idea of a dichotomous key by using it to sort Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans. This is the accelerated content standard from our rocks and minerals unit.
In your own words, what is a dichotmous key? What is it used for?
How can you apply what you learned in this activity to sort rocks? Try writing a set of options, or a dichotomy, to VISIBLY sort rocks.
