We had a blast covering the @MUSICAscience trip for @CarnegiePlanets (AND I saw a tumbleweed tumbling for the first time. #LifeGoals)
A million thanks to @KatyCain526 and @DCScienceFan for their excellent coverage of our @MUSICAscience adventures this past week!

Learning begins when we realize how much we don’t know. At which point, a hammer fixes everything! Thank you @MUSICAscience @Seismo_Lara and @AndesTectonics for a wonderful week of professional development. I’m excited to creating new engaging lessons plans in phase 2.

Emily Dickinson once wrote: “The brain is wider than the sky.” So true when analyzing the sediment structure of the Grand Canyon! Thankful to better understand and teach the processes that created this fierce but magical view! @MUSICAscience @AndesTectonics & @Seismo_Lara

What a phenomenal week of professional development for plate tectonics, sedimentation, volcanoes and fractionation of magma. Learned so much this week! Can't wait to design lesson plans and implement for my kids next school year. #sciencerocks #txscienceteacher
We had an incredible week with our MUSICA teachers. Thanks to their great questions, good spirits, and hard work. Next up: lesson planning!!

We found the secret whiteboard with the whole week's activities written out. This is what's been keeping us so busy!

Mystery solved! (One of three.) It's glauconite. @AndesTectonics made our final game very challenging.

Last activity: our teachers are using hand lenses and the microscope to identify three rock samples from Texas.

.@AndesTectonics talks to our teachers about how to cut thin slices of rock samples for viewing under the microscope.

Which led the seismologists and experimental petrologists in the room to groan collectively.
Sedimentary rocks are the direct lifeline to understanding the history of "the most important part" of our planet--its surface, says @AndesTectonics, describing his work.

Our teachers are in the classroom with @AndesTectonics discussing the observable features that characterize the features they saw in the Grand Canyon earlier this week and the various sedimentary processes that formed these different layers.
