All About Rocks

There are 3 types of rocks:

-Igneous rocks

-Sedimentary rocks

-Metamorphic rocks

Igneous rocks are created within the earth’s crust. Magma (molten rock) cools and hardens making igneous rocks.

Metamorphic rocks are formed

when existing rocks are

changed due to heat or pressure.

Sedimentary Rocks are made of sediment, tiny grains of sand, clay, or bits of other rocks. The sediment settles at the bottom of lakes, rivers, or oceans, and slowly

hardens over time.

The Rock Cycle

Row Your Boat")

SEDIMENTARY rock Has been formed in layers

Often found near water sources With fossils from decayers

Then there's IGNEOUS rock Here since Earth was born Molten Lava, cooled and

hardened That is how it’s formed

These two types of rocks Can also be transformed With pressure, heat and

chemicals METAMORPHIC they'll become.
