High Tech High Touch

Last week we had the privilege of have a real scientist from High Tech High Touch come out. We learned all about rocks and had the opportunity to mine from some treasured rocks of our own. Hunting for rocks and washing them off in the "river"

Sharing our findings with a friend!



Then we sorted and classified our rocks by color, shape, luster, and texture.





We tested our rocks to see if they are magnetic.



We looked to see if they bubbled in vinegar.

We had a great time! We would like to thank the Spears PTA for bringing this wonderful program to our classroom.
