Here is a power point presentation on rocks and minerals. There is a lot of information here that could be taught to all grades, but mainly this would be a great source for 4th or 5th graders. If you don't know much about rocks as a teacher this presentation would teach the basic information to students. Many students will find learning about rocks fasinating and maybe one day they will start a rock collection of their own.
