DESCRIPTION

Rocks… what are the different types and how are they formed?. Igneous rocks form from molten rock cooling and hardening on OR below the surface of the Earth. EXTRUSIVE igneous rocks are from cooled lava on the surface of the earth. - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

Igneous rocks form from molten rock cooling and hardening on OR below the surface of the Earth.

EXTRUSIVE igneous rocks are from cooled lava on the surface of the earth.

INTRUSIVE igneous rocks form from magma cooling slowing inside the earth.

Page 4: Rocks… what are the different types and how are they formed?
Page 5: Rocks… what are the different types and how are they formed?

These intrusive igneous rocks have larger crystals because they cooled very slowly inside the earth.

Page 6: Rocks… what are the different types and how are they formed?

These extrusive igneous rocks cooled so quickly on the earth's surface they have very small or no crystals at all.

How are they formed?1

Rocks that form when particles of rock or sediments settle and

harden together.

Metamorphic Rocks

Page 14: Rocks… what are the different types and how are they formed?

Rocks that are formed when existing rocks are heated and squeezed with

extreme pressure

The Rock CycleThink about relationships among the

major rock groups and illustrate the Rock Cycle Diagram in your journal as we go through the PPT.

• The rock cycle demonstrates the relationships among the three major rock groups

• It is powered by the Earth’s heat

• It involves processes on the Earth’s surface as well as the Earth’s interior

• It connects the “water cycle” with the “tectonic cycle”.
