Educational worksheet on rocks and soils for students to learn about different rock types and their properties.

Final Answer:
sandstone — looks like grains stuck together, feels gritty, used for building and paving because it’s strong and easy to cut
marble — looks shiny and swirly, feels smooth and cool, used for statues, floors, and countertops because it’s beautiful and durable
chalk — looks white and soft, feels powdery and crumbly, used for writing on blackboards and in gardening to adjust soil pH
pumice — looks light and full of holes, feels very light and rough, used for scrubbing skin or cleaning surfaces because it’s abrasive but lightweight
clay — looks smooth and dull when wet, feels sticky and soft, used for making pottery, bricks, and tiles because it shapes easily and hardens when baked
