We have been doing SO MUCH hands on science this year! Our rock unit is one of my most favorite things to teach, and this year I changed it up a bit and had a lot more deep learning experiences for the kids. We made models of each type of rock, observed and recorded attributes of rocks and minerals, created our own rock museum and lots more!
Today, we had an opportunity to do a virtual field trip with the education director at the Wyoming Natural History Museum. It was an awesome experience for us to learn from him and see many of the amazing artifacts the museum has on display! He was very knowledgable and the kids were able to have a QandA session with him at the end.
