Question 1
1.

A group of geologists spent the summer collecting samples of the rocks found in many locations. They took photos of each place that they collected rocks and marked that place on a map. They carefully labeled where each rock came from. Unfortunately, on the trip back home, a box of rocks fell over. Every rock was separated from the label that identified where it had been found. It’s a disaster for the research project!

Look for clues about where these rocks came from. Match the rocks to the locations where the geologists found it.
