1. Igneous and Sedimentary Rocks SWBAT explain how extrusive and intrusive igneous rocks are different; describe how different types of sedimentary rocks are formed

2. What are the three types of rocks? Igneous Sedimentary Metamorphic

3. Igneous Rocks Igneous rocks –form when melted rock material from inside Earth cools. Extrusive –igneous rocks that cool on Earth’s surface. Intrusive –igneous rocks that cool under Earth’s surface.

4. Chemical Composition What determines the color of a rock? –Color in rocks is determined by the chemical materials in it. If a rock has a high percentage of silica and little iron, magnesium, or calcium, what color will it be and what is it called? –It will be light in color –It is called granitic –They are generally intrusive rocks

5. Chemical Composition If a rock has a low percentage of silica and contains more iron, magnesium, or calcium, what color will it be and what do we call it? –It is darker in color –It is called basaltic –They are generally extrusive

6. Rocks from Lava Extrusive rocks –have small crystals because of the quick cooling time. They are formed from lava. Fissure –A large crack in earth’s surface that magma can come up through

7. Rocks from Magma Intrusive rocks –have large crystals because of the extended cooling time. They are formed from magma.

8. Sedimentary Rocks Sediments –pieces of broken rock, shells, mineral grains, and other materials. Sedimentary rocks –when sediments collect in layers to form rocks.

9. 3 types of sedimentary rocks Detrital rocks –made of grains of minerals or other rocks that have moved and been deposited in layers by water, wind, gravity, or ice. –They are cemented together by minerals dissolved in water. –The weight of the layers above squeezes or compacts them into rock.

10. 3 types of sedimentary rocks Chemical rocks –form when seawater, loaded with dissolved materials, evaporates and layers of minerals are left behind. Organic rocks –form when living matter dies, piles up, and then is compressed into rock
