Our theme for this week's Nature Club was School of Rock. I brought a collection of various pretty and interesting rocks for the boys and girls to examine. In addition, they got to take river rocks and build towers, as well as take shiny white rocks to make patterns- ones they followed or they could make their own.
The preschoolers learned that rocks are created in several different ways: from heat or pressure deep in the earth, or from sand, mud or plant/animal material being laid down by lakes or seas and then, over millions of years, hardening into rock.
