Ohio Rocks! takes your third through fifth grade students on a tour of Ohio's geology. Learn about the forces that formed and shaped our state, the geologic evidence left behind, and how humans have used our geologic resources throughout our history. These standards-based videos and lessons will take your students on a video field trip to some of the most interesting and important geologic sites in our state.
