My Birthstone! Research Project Activity for Science Class
As I teach about rocks and minerals, I often get questions from my students about birthstones: What are they? Why do we have birthstones? What is my birthstone? This activity allows students to research these questions about their own birthstone. This activity goes well in a unit about rocks and minerals because as the students research several questions about it (i.e "is it organic?" "does it have a crystalline structure?"), they will be able to answer the question of whether or not their birth
