What Rock Is That?  And Other Common 4th Grade Questions

This workshop is open only to NHMU Summer Camp Instructors. 

Join NHMU scientists and educators for an evening of hands-on, inquiry-based learning to review important geologic concepts while interacting with museum-quality rock and mineral specimens.  We will be answering tricky student (and your own) questions about rocks, minerals, and fossils, and make you feel more comfortable teaching geology in your classroom.

This 5 hour Saturday session will highlight Parasites with the opportunity to learn first-hand from Dr. Sarah Bush. Includes hands-on activities as well as practice with toolbox lesson plans and the integration of content into other curriculum.
