"Gold" Mining

Today we were miners in Social Studies except we went mining for chocolate chips. Each student received a chocolate chip cookie and a toothpick. They had to try to get their chocolate chips out of the cookie. Some students did this very neatly and others' cookies crumbled. This mining activity showed the effects of mining on the West and how the natural environment was changed.
