ROCKS AND MINERALS: LAPIDARY ART

Please visit the link to the Lizzadro Museum of Lapidary Art to learn about the museum.

The purpose of this field trip is to provide you with background information (put some files in the file cabinet in your brain!) about rocks and minerals.

We will be studying earthquakes and volcanoes in the next few weeks. Please think about the following as you visit the museum:
  1. WHERE ROCKS AND MINERALS COME FROM
  2. HOW ROCKS AND MINERALS ARE FORMED
  3. DIFFERENT TYPES OF ROCKS AND MINERALS AND THEIR USES
