Students Use Reasoning Skills to Locate Hidden Natural Treasures

The New York State Regents Examination in Physical Setting/Earth Science (Part D) consists of two components: a laboratory performance test and a written test. The performance test features three different stations of hands-on activities.

Students Master Investigative Skills by Testing Mineral Properties.

This kit provides a series of “hands-on” activities that allow students to use key Earth Science concepts by conducting a mineral exploration that simulates real-life economic, societal, and issue oriented problems.

The investigations in this kit turn the task of learning rock types and rock cycles processes into something memorable for elementary and middle school students.
