Daniel: [to viewer] Let's go see some Neighbors!

Sam: [to viewer] Hi, Neighbors. I'm Sam.

Today, I'm at the museum to find out about these rocks

that I found, from my friend Jessica.

Hi Jessica. Jessica: Hi Sam.

I'm so glad you came to see me.

Sam: Me too. I have these cool rocks

that I have some questions about, can you tell me more?

Jessica: Of course! You came to the right place.

We have lots of wonderful rocks, minerals,

and gems here at the museum.

Let's take a closer look together.

Sam: Okay!

I noticed some things about these rocks.

This one has a green stripe going through it,

and this one has black stripes all over it.

Jessica: Oh, it is really cool that you noticed

all those things about the rocks.

So, things like color and shape, and pattern,

help us identify these stones.

I think this is probably quartz,

with some calcite running right through the middle there.

Would you like to see some more minerals

that we have here at the museum?

Sam: Yeah.

Jessica: Hi Pat! Thank you so much

for getting these ready for us!

Pat: You're welcome.

Jessica: Take a look at these.

So, there are lots of different kinds of minerals

and rocks and gems out there.

They're all very different, and very unique.

Take a look at some of these specimens;

these are some of my favorites.

Sam: Wow, they are amazing.

I really like the...Zurite?

Jessica: Yes, Azurite!

This one is a really bright blue,

and it's really easy to identify because of that.

If you look, there's little tiny specks in it,

that kind of give it like a little shine.

I think that one's beautiful too!

And this one is similar to it, it's called Malachite.

But of course, you can see a very different color.

Nice bright color!

And see these strips going through it?

Sam: Thank you for showing me all these cool rocks.

Jessica: You're welcome! Thank you for coming.
