Fascinate your students with the study of fossils. Kit contains 10 sets of 21 plastic reproduction fossils that students can measure, identify, and classify according to geologic era using the included fossil key. Grades 6-12.
Learn concepts of air pollution and its harmful effects using one form of a common air pollutant, sulfur dioxide on experiments with plant life. This kit provides instruction, apparatus and materials to experiment with plant seedlings exposed to a sulfur dioxide atmosphere at a known concentration which produces an effect on plant life that can easily be observed within several days.

This accurate relief model features a view of the earth?s interior and atmosphere in the same scale. The 12-inch diameter plastic globe, mounted in a cradle base, crust, mantle, and inner and outer cores. Used as a relief globe, this White model can be used for many classroom activities. The removable disk also portrays the atmosphere, temp, air densities, distance and problems of space travel. Size 14" x 14".
Teaches basic map reading: how to determine location, elevation and understand scales and symbols. Each package includes a plastic terrain model with 5 corresponding stacking contour sheets, 5 unprinted stacking contour sheets for projects, a wall map of the relief model with 50 student project maps, and a grease pencil. All plastics may be marked and erased. Study Guide.
Introduce your students to the world of minerals. Provide your class with a hands-on lesson in the formation and characteristics of minerals. Using the set of specimens provided, the students observe the distinct characteristics of minerals and perform a variety of tests to classify them with respect to hardness, streaking, color, luster, specific gravity and reaction to acids. They'll also grow their own microcrystals to understand how crystals form beneath the earth's surface and what environmental conditions are required. Your students will identify minerals based upon their physical properties. Determine the hardness of common minerals using Mohs scale of hardness. Examine the crystalline structure of minerals. Calculate the specific gravity of mineral samples. Predict the reaction of specific minerals to hydrochloric acid. Investigate how crystals form from liquids. Class Size: 40 Students. Grades: 7-10.
50 specimens approximately 1-1/2". Includes industrial minerals, gem-type minerals, rock-forming minerals and igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic rocks plus Study Guide. Grades 5-12. Ages 10-18.
