Third-grade students have been learning about rocks and minerals during science. A few weeks ago we were treated to Mike and Roberta Straka’s “Rock, Mineral, and Fossil Show”. Mike and Roberta are field paleontologists who enjoy sharing their expertise with elementary schools throughout the Northeast. During this assembly, students learned about how rocks form over millions of years, the different types of rocks and the rock cycle, and how rocks are formed from minerals. One highlight of the show was seeing an authentic 8-foot triceratops skull!

There is a lot for 2nd grade kids (who will soon to be 3rd grade kids) to look forward to next year! Thanks, PTO for all your support bringing these assemblies to our students!
