When we explore a topic, we expose young scientists to the vocabulary, tools, and activities related to our subject. During our exploration of geology and paleontology, we made observations of rock and mineral specimens and created sorting categories based on criteria of color, shape, and size. We used hammers to open up geodes which young scientists were able to take home and add to their collection.
Rocks and minerals are not the only things beneath our feet! Young scientists excavated authentic fossils and explored prehistoric amber. We created replicas out of clay and explored the details in our creations.
We became geologists and paleontologists as we explored the clues found on the ground on our amazing planet!
