Loose-leaf pages are presented in nine sections that contain: (1) introductions to the North Carolina State Park System, the Crowders Mountain State Park, the park's activity packet, and the geological history of Crowders Mountain; (2) a summary of the activities that includes major concepts and objectives covered; (3) a pre-visit activity to introduce the sedimentary, metamorphic, and igneous rock classifications and explain the rock cycle; (4) an on-site activity to enable students to identify two rocks and four minerals; (5) a post-visit activity to enable students to understand how daily materials come from the earth's resources; (6) a list of 66 related vocabulary words; (7) necessary park and parental permission forms for the visit; and (8) blank pages for taking notes.
