FIELD TRIPS

Get ready to rock your classroom! Our hands-on geology programs inspire curiosity through engaging lessons, interactive lab activities, and exciting explorations of rocks, minerals, and fossils. Aligned with Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS), each program is packed with crosscutting concepts that help students make real-world connections, making science both fun and meaningful.

Program topics: Rocks & Minerals, Fossils and Geologic Time, Geology and Electronics (aka what’s in your cell phone).

*Service areas are Seattle, Everett, and Eastside*

WHAT TO EXPECT

Programs are typically 60 minutes depending on the age and size of your group. We bring all the resources to your school or desired location. Touch tables, microscopes, activity stations, tools, identification cards, plus rocks and crystals to take home.

• We will customize the programming to fit your needs and audience.

• Multiple activities will be offered during an event, to keep things fresh and fun.

• We bring everything! You provide the space, we provide the rest.

• Some activities may require electricity, water, or outdoor access (i.e. cracking geodes, gem mining).

• Off-site field trips can be arranged at a local rock club, library, or outdoor park setting - please inquire.

COST

The cost for outreach varies depending on the type of event or service. For example, a classroom visit is $400 and a full day science event costs $400 for the first class and $200 for each additional class, up to four classes per day. Location, headcount, and supplies are a factor so please request a quote for all-day Science event or Family STEM night.
