The most appropriate activity for modeling the physical weathering of rock would be:
Place several cookies in a box, and then shake the box.
This activity simulates the physical breakdown of rock into smaller pieces due to mechanical forces, similar to how rocks may be physically weathered by factors such as wind, water movement, or physical impact over time. The shaking will cause the cookies to crumble, analogous to how rocks can fracture and wear down in nature.
