Rocks Clever Catch (Product Code: SLE/ES/15) is a 24 in inflatable vinyl ball printed with 96 facts about igneous, metamorphic and sedimentary rocks. Designed for grades 6-8, it turns the review of earth materials into a game: students toss the ball around the classroom and respond to the fact under their hand, so revision becomes quick, active and noisy in the best sense. It is a game-based science kit for students, supplied by Jain Scientific Equipments Pvt Ltd (ScienceLab), Ambala.

The ball works best as a five- or ten-minute starter or plenary. The teacher throws it to a student, who reads the fact under a chosen thumb, says which rock type it relates to, and throws it on. Variations keep the game fresh: teams can score points for correct classifications, students can be asked to turn a fact into a question for the next catcher, or the class can keep a running list of new vocabulary. It can also be bounced on the playground or spun at home for individual revision.
Used before a practical session with real specimens, it refreshes the key terms students need, and it fits well with a class 8 science kit when a rocks and soil unit is being revised. Inflate it until firm but not tight, keep it away from sharp edges and rough surfaces, and wipe the vinyl with a damp cloth after outdoor use.
