My Favorite Mineral
A Class Presentation
Dynamic Earth
The idea here is to assemble a presentation on one mineral that will take about three to four minutes. You are required to have visual aids (a minimum of two) and a good background knowledge of your mineral.
Stuff you should know:
- Chemical composition, and crystalline structure of your mineral
- Where it is found and who first discovered it
- Uses of the mineral
- Legends (if any) about the mineral
- Why should we care about this mineral?
Grading rubric categories
- Visual Aids
- Eye Contact
- Stance
- Research
- Rehearsal
You must chose a mineral and give me the name by Friday of this week. Go to one of these sites for a list…
