RDLITTLE2000@aol.com “LOCAL GEOLOGY” PROGRAMS
for schools and adult
groups
1. “Dinosaurs Dunes and
Drifting Continents: the geology of the Connecticut
River
Valley” POWERPOINT program This program covers 600
million years of geologic history illustrating how the Connecticut Valley
Region evolved into the beautiful rocks and landscapes we see today. Learn about where we were before Pangea and
how the break-up of this “supercontinent” resulted in the Connecticut
Valley. Armored mud balls, dinosaurs,
lava flows, glaciation, Lake Hitchcock, and our human links to our local
geology are all covered, abundantly illustrated and with humor. This fast paced program has
been seen by dozens of groups from seniors to upper elementary school
through
college classes. 2. “Fantastic
Landscape' Connections” This program in PowerPoint
format draws on the author’s 25 years of leading groups to North America’s
“fantastic landscapes”. He will present
pictures and stories from Hawaii, Alaska, Canadian Rockies, and the
Western US
and relate these scenic landscapes to the geologic history of the
Connecticut
Valley Region. You will be surprised and amazed at the “connections” we
have to
North America’s famous, dramatic, scenery. 3. “The Iceland – Connecticut Valley Connection: fire, ice, and continental creation”  This
PowerPoint program will feature the pictures and experiences of Prof.
Richard
Little’s “Fantastic Landscapes” Tour to Iceland in August, 2007. You will see how Iceland came to be such a
unique place on Earth as we look at amazing waterfalls, the world’s most
scenic
geyser, great faults, and what happens when volcanoes erupt under
glaciers. The Connecticut Valley
region's geological history has a lot in common
with the spectacular events
of Iceland and Prof. Little will illustrate our
connections.PROGRAM
COSTS:
