Give your mineral research project a twist! Assess your students' mineral knowledge in a creative way!
 
This project asks students to complete traditional research looking into the mineral's chemical and physical characteristics but challenges them to decide if the particular mineral is a superhero or villain and why! I began adding in this twist and my students have been so much more engaged throughout the course of the project.
 
This file includes the websites I provide my students for research, teacher and student instructions, and rubrics. Focused research sheets made specifically for this project are included ready for a traditional or digital use!
 
Within the file there are 4 formats to complete this project, each being applicable to multiple platforms. There are digital and in-class project options, allowing you to assign this project regardless of what this school year may look like!
