Things that you will need to get ready for this activity.
This activity will need two sets of screens that come in either of the 2nd grade kits. These kits come in sets of 3 different sized screens. You will also need the different sized rocks that go with this particular kit; sand, small gravel, large gravel, small pebbles, and large pebbles. You will also need 5 of the small clear containers that fit under the screens. It it most helpful to also have a grey bin to put under the screens so that the rocks don’t get all over the table. (This station would also benefit from having a small broom and dustpan to clean up and of the rocks that fell out of the bins.) You will also need to print, laminate and cut out the cards that go with each of the tubs of rocks.

- 2 sets of the three screens
