My sugges...I love teaching rocks! No really, I do! <br />My suggestions to make it more fun... give each child an egg carton, they can fill it up until it's bursting as long as it's able to close. A plus for you is that they stack easily and really don't take up much room.<br />Another fun activity when talking about minerals in rocks and such give each child a chocolate chip cookie and a plastic fork and let them "mine" for chocolate chip minerals... and of course they can eat their findings. To add a math element you can get the candy coloured chips and then graph their findings! <br />I taught rocks last year and my kids are STILL rock collecting... and the rocks are covered with snow now!
