Go outside and find an outcrop—a roadcut, cliff face, or other site where rocks are exposed. These are ideal places for practicing field geology. Professor Cotter gives tips on safety, maps, tools, and techniques. A notebook and careful record-keeping are essential. Amateur geologists can make important discoveries, so field geology is your chance to advance knowledge while enjoying the outdoors.

Little did you always know he was important. After all, he comes from a long line of E's. In his heart, he can tell he has the power to be a hero.That is, until the day Little E doesn't show up to class. At first, the other letters don't even notice he's gone. But then C, A, and K try to form a word for dessert, and they can't make it work. The whole class is suddenly in an uproar. Without their silent friends, what are they going to do?

Dandelions are a flowering weed—but they’re also much more than that. After they flower, each dandelion turns into a fluffy ball of puffy seeds. And then, with a poof, the seeds scatter. Drifting on the wind, tucked in a tuft of fur, carried on a shoe, even traveling through something’s belly. The seeds disperse, hitching rides to spread far and wide.

Visit the beach with a geologist's eyes and see how the interaction of waves, ocean currents, and winds lead to the ebb and flow of sediments and blending of landforms. Consider the four types of waves and what they reveal about the ocean floor just offshore. Also, zero in on individual grains of sand, identifying their minerals and tracing their origin. Reflect on why beaches are sandy at all.

Check out limestone, one of nature's most amazing rocks, with medical, economic, and sightseeing benefits. Not to mention, limestone provides insight into environments eons ago. Examine its chemistry and the ways it forms. Survey different kinds of limestone, including types that preserve detailed fossils. Finally, look at sinkholes and caves, which occur in limestone karst topography.

A new animated series from Baby Einstein that introduces the letters of the alphabet and the sounds they make.

Soil may be the most important geologic resource on the planet. Discover how geologists classify soils, focusing on the concept of soil horizons, which are distinct layers that often vary in composition, color, and texture. Analyze how this cross section, which signals soil fertility, differs depending on the type of biome. Learn how soils form and how easily they are destroyed by erosion.
