This rock cycle game is a fun and engaging way for students to review types of rocks, rock formation, and the processes that drive the rock cycle. Students work in groups of 2–5 to answer questions, roll the die, and move their game pieces along the board as they race to reach the finish line first!

This rock cycle review game is easy to set up. All you need to add are game pieces for each player (I use rocks, but coins or any small classroom items work great!) and one die per group.

The game includes multiple-choice, true/false, and short-answer questions to review key rock cycle concepts in a variety of formats.

This rock cycle board game also includes rock-themed action spaces where students may skip a turn, move to a new space, trade places, or roll again. Other spaces feature rock cycle graphics and fun facts to keep students engaged as they play.
