Program Description
Join a DINOSAURS ROCK expert for this geological journey, exploring the world of Rocks & Minerals, complete with real museum quality specimens as the backdrop. Students take home REAL minerals if in person and we ship out real minerals and gemstones for each student to keep if virtual! We'll cover Rocks & Minerals and Geology through a highly interactive show with accompanying keynote video and expansive exhibits of Amethyst, Quartz, Giant Geodes, Quartz, Pyrite, Emerald, Citrine and more... Students will learn about Rocks & Mineral as vital resources in our everyday lives, how Gemstones form, the origin of volcanic crystal-filled geodes (with a visual demo of splitting a REAL geode), plate tectonics (depending on grade) covering the large-scale dynamic forces that affect earth's land, water and atmospheric systems, weathering and erosion. Customized to grade/age level. Other activities such as crack-your-own Geodes, Excavations available. Links to Study Guide and Mineral ID chart provided.
