Description
Enjoy learning about rocks and minerals with this set of 94 rock and mineral cards crafted by a professional geologist. These full-color digital cards are easy to use and enjoy. Each page has two cards, simply cut along the purple lines and fold the end sections as desired.
Our clever two-fold design allows you to show the rock or mineral name OR the photo to the student making the lessons customizable to the test type. We recommend having students learn to recognize samples but to also know the properties by name as sample appearance can vary.
