Learners follow a three-step process to start their own rock collection.

In this activity, learners participate in a scavenger hunt, searching for and recognizing minerals and products that contain minerals.

In this seismic simulation, learners play a "who-dunnit" game to explore earthquakes.

In this activity, learners model erosion using a clear shoebox and sand or soil.

Learners model the processes that formed some of Earth's largest mountain ranges: the Himalayas, the Andes, and the Alps.

In this online activity, learners see simulations of how processes shape the Earth, and see estimates of how long these processes take.

In this activity, two groups of learners create two separate landform models out of clay (mountains and valleys).

In this activity (page 2 of PDF under GPS: Cave Swallows Activity), learners will model how caves are formed by placing one piece of chalk in a cup of vinegar and another piece in a cup of water, then

In this activity, learners take core samples of candy bars with a straw and carefully observe & excavate their sample, modeled after what the NASA Perseverance rover will do on Mars.

In this activity, learners use crayons to draw conclusions about rocks and the rock cycle.
