Free Destination Unknown - Week 1
Free Preview: Week One
Your mission begins now. In Week One of Destination Unknown: Earth Landscape Investigation, young geologic field agents receive their first classified briefing - a mysterious set of clues pointing to an unknown location somewhere on Earth. Using real-world evidence like rock type, landform shape, erosion patterns, and climate indicators, students begin piecing together the puzzle of where on Earth they've been assigned.
This free week includes:
- Mission Briefing #1 — your agent's first clue packet
- Intro to the Field Agent Notebook — how to record evidence like a real geologist
- Hands-On Activity: Rock Detectives — observing and comparing rock samples to unlock your first location clues
- Discussion Prompt: What does the land tell us before anyone says a word?
Perfect for grades 6–10, this week sets the tone for the whole unit: inquiry-driven, evidence-based, and genuinely mysterious. No prior geology knowledge needed - just curiosity and a willingness to dig in.
