Relative Timeline Lab
by Amanda Stalvey
Students will engage in a phenomena based lab in which they simulate relative dating of sedimentary rocks, an earthquake and volcanic eruption. In the lab, students will see how the layers at the bottom of a sample are the oldest with the youngest on the top and how to identify when the intrusion or earthquake occurred through experience and observation.
