About the program
This 2-hour program is designed for Stage 6 Earth and Environmental Science students completing Module 1 in Year 11.
Provide your students a chance to engage with the Museum's diverse rock and mineral collection, get hands on identifying and classifying rocks, investigate First Nations peoples use of geological resources, and analyse the significance of renewable and non-renewable resources.
This program takes place within the Burra learning space and the Minerals gallery. The programs and resources have been specially designed or sourced to enable group work, hands-on experiences, exploration and open-ended questioning, which foster collaboration and critical thinking.
The program will be facilitated by a Museum educator, and we strongly encourage teacher, parent and guardian participation.
