the inner workings of earth. build and erupt a model volcano with plaster-based
"lava" that hardens after each eruption. the volcano can be erupted multiple times,
and the
volcanic cone builds up with each eruption, like a real volcano. learn about
the different types of volcanoes. build a working seismograph, and fake some
''quakes to see for yourself how scientists measure earthquake forces. discover
plate tectonics, and see how volcanoes and earthquakes are caused by the constant
movement of the planet''s parts. assemble a plate tectonics puzzle and a geological

new york state regents package #1:
mineral and rock identification
the new york state regents examination in physical setting/earth science (part
d) consists of two components: a laboratory performance test and a written test.
the performance test features three different stations of hands-on activities.
using the new york state education department guidelines for the 2009 performance
test (part d), ward''s created cost-effective, convenient kits with everything you
need to prepare for administering the test at each station.
this comprehensive kit for station #1 includes 18 high-quality mineral and rock
specimens from ward''s extensive collection. included minerals are graphite, galena,
hematite, calcite, fluorite, plagioclase feldspar (albite). included igneous rocks
are granite (coarse), pumice, obsidian, rhyolite. sedimentary rocks: conglomerate,
sandstone, shale, limestone and metamorphic rocks: slate, schist (mica), gneiss
(gray banded), and marble are also included. additionally, the kit provides all
testing
tools for six station set ups.
