WRITE IN NOTEBOOKForces deep inside Earth and at the surface slowly build, destroy, and change rocks in the crust.
WRITE IN NOTEBOOKPlate movements start the rock cycle: magma forms (source of igneous rocks)
WRITE IN NOTEBOOKPlate movements cause crust faulting and folding (forms sedimentary and metamorphic rocks)

WRITE IN NOTEBOOKMinerals form as hot magma cools inside the crust, or as hot lava hardens on the surface.
WRITE IN NOTEBOOKMinerals are:the building blocks of all rocks
made by the Earth (not manmade)
not alive (inorganic) found in soils and water too
WRITE IN NOTEBOOKMinerals can be made of:1 element (gold or silver)compounds of 2 or more elements (quartz and calcite)
WRITE IN NOTEBOOK
Minerals typically form crystals (flat surfaces where the atoms join)
WRITE IN NOTEBOOKWhen some minerals dissolve in water, they leave behind a crystallized solution

COMPACTION – SEDIMENTS FORM LAYERS OVER TIME, AND THE LAYERS ARE PRESSED AND CEMENTED TOGETHER.

SEDIMENTARY ROCK – SEDIMENTS THAT HAVE COMPACTED OVER TIME, MAY CONTAIN ORGANIC MATTER AND FOSSILS

CHECK OUR UNDERSTANDINGHow many different types of rock
exist?3 types of rockWhat are the names of these 3
rocks? Igneous, metamorphic, &
sedimentaryDo rocks ever change?Yes, with weathering erosion, heat
and pressure, and meltingCan an igneous rock only change
into a sedimentary rock?Any rock can become any other
rock – it is a cycle
