We have begun learning about rocks and minerals in science. The students get so excited about seeing and feeling the rocks. With only one class set there is a lot of limitation on the students touching, feeling and comparing the rocks. There is only so much they can observe from a rock that is at the front of the room versus a rock they can touch and observe. There is also a lesson on identifying minerals. The students will need to perform a series of tests to identify the minerals. This becomes extremely difficult with just one classroom set of minerals. Please help my student get the chance to learn about rocks through observations, experiments and hands on experience!
