Geology Lab Kit

Description

The Geology Lab Kit is a great way to introduce your budding geologist to several areas of geology: rocks, minerals, and fossils. You will get lots of hands on specimens for all of the projects, plus three books by Rockman Pat.

Included in this kit are instructions and activities for developing science investigative skills, and interpretive skills. Both are needed to solve the questions of earth history.
