Studying Minerals

Over the last two weeks the students have performed 5 different tests on a set of 10 "mystery minerals".  They took all the information they gathered from the tests to determine what was the name of each of the minerals they were given.  The students have realized it is hard work to be a geologist.  We will continue this week working on our geology unit by learning about the three types of rocks and learning about how they are each formed.

Here are some pictures of students doing some of the mineral tests:
