The school used this visit as the basis for a learning activity. The children continued to work on the topic of Naica, and the teacher, Judith Salanguera, linked it to a project about diamonds and geology that they were already doing in class. Judith asked the students if they thought that one of the big Naica crystals would fit in the classroom. To find out, the students had to "invent" a way of taking measurements. This allowed the teacher to introduce linear units of measure (meters) while also working on addition.
