Science Museum of Virginia is exhibiting at the Nov. 16th VSU program!

At the Science Museum of Virginia exhibit, we will look at the different types of rocks: sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic. Kids will be able to look at, identify, and touch different samples as they learn. As they are learning about how different rocks form, they will also make a model door hanger that shows the 4 main layers of the earth's crust and list some brief facts about each layer. They will learn a little bit about tectonic plates, continental drift, and why continents look like they do.

Also, we will have information about other neat things that are going on at the Science Museum of Virginia! Come check it out!
