Ready for Geology?

We are going to have 1 or two kids studying geology this year.
We haven’t quite decided yet.
In preparation I’ve been studying all about rocks, minerals, plate tectonics, earthquakes, volcanoes
and the like.

 

Can I just confess that science isn’t my subject.
Well, I love science, I just don’t do so well at teaching it.

And then I created an Oreo lab for plate tectonics.
OREOS. You know, the cookies?

Ok, I’m in now. (As long as there’s milk too…)

Although I am nowhere near ready for school, I am ready to jump into geology with at least one son.
That’s a start!

Are you ready for school?

 

Are you teaching geology this year? You may want to take a look at this resource.
