The Rock Cycle Class (1st Thursday)
Teaches fundamental skills all geologists or Earth Science enthusiasts should master to understand the type of rock around them. They learn how gravity and buoyancy interplay and cause the rocks to alter into different types. They also learn how to observe with a magnifying glass the texture, and what a rock is composed of. Would another perspective on gravity, buoyancy, hardness and density help to fortify your curriculum, this class blends the sciences and holistically teaches rock identification.

The Moh's Hardness Testing Class (2nd Thursday)

Teaches kids about hardness, luster, density, the difference between a rock and mineral, and how to test for what a mineral is in the field. Kids get to learn the scratch test and Moh's Hardness test with their minerals while learning about atoms and their bonds! Why does your diamond not get scratched by anything, we will teach you!

Fossils And Lithification Class (3rd Thursday)

Kids will discover all types of fossils and Megalodon teeth!
