Class Experience

US Grade 1 - 3
In this one time class, students will learn about the three main types of rocks and several different types of minerals and gemstones through a vibrant presentation, discussions, and demonstrations. They will use play dough to apply their new knowledge and create their own rocks. 
Students will be encouraged to participate in discussions and ask/answer questions. They are welcome to bring any rocks/gemstones they have at home for us to examine together.

This is a beginner level rocks and minerals class. No prior knowledge is required in order to participate.

I look forward to teaching your children!
