1 By Thais Pizarro

2 Igneous rocks are formed when melted rock (lava) cools and hardens. Metamorphic rocks form deep inside the Earth when rocks are put under high temperature & pressure. Sedimentary rocks form when wind or water break down other rocks or organic matter and then deposit the pieces on top of each other like layers.

3 This type of rock forms deep inside Earth under extreme pressure and temperature. Igneous Sedimentary Metamorphic

4 This type of rock forms when melted rock cools and hardens. Igneous Sedimentary Metamorphic

5 This type of rock forms when pieces of other rocks are deposited into layers. Metamorphic Igneous Sedimentary

6 Yes No Sandstone is an example of a sedimentary rock?

7 Yes No Granite is an example of a metamorphic rock?

8 Yes No Obsidian is an example of an igneous rock?

9 Yes No Slate is an example of a metamorphic rock?

10 Yes No Marble is an example of a sedimentary rock?

11 Yes No Rocks can change from one type to another in what we call the rock cycle?

12 If a metamorphic rock is melted and then cooled it will change into a ________. Sedimentary rock Igneous rock

13 If a sedimentary rock is put under extreme heat and pressure it will change into a ________. Metamorphic rock Igneous rock
