Join us for a very special visit from America's oldest museum! Led by a professional museum educator, we'll dig into geology together! We'll learn all about the rock cycle and the different types of rocks that make up our environment, use the scientific method and techniques used by real geologists to test rocks and identify the type of rock and minerals present. Students will have an opportunity to test rocks for hardness, streak, magnetism, among other properties.
