Tuesday, August 21st CRCT A rock formed from the heating and cooling of magma inside the Earth is known as:Extrusive Foliated Conglomerate Instrusive

Week At a Glance Today: Igneous Dichotomous Key Lab and Tier 2 Worktime Wednesday: Igneous/Rock classification quiz and begin Metamorphic notes Thursday: Tier 1 Metamorphic DUE, Computer LabFriday: Tier 2 Igneous DUE, Computer LabTier 1 MetamorphicMetamorphic Rock chart: Complete using research

Picture: Needs to be colored! Find the difference between foliated and non-foliatedhint: use the outline!Corny Joke of the DayWhy did the forgetful student never make it through Medical school?

Because he couldnt remember the order of operations

I. Classifying Rocks

#1 FORMATIONWe also classify rocks according to:2. Mineral composition3. Texture 4. Grain Pattern II. Mineral CompositionScientists will look at their mineral composition through a microscope

III. Texture

IV. Grain PatternSize: fine or CoarsedShape: Smooth, rounded, or Jagged

Your mission. Given the Dichotomous key, find out the name of each rock by looking at these classifications!

Dichotomous KeyA way to categorize thingsHelps identify things Two parts:Two part statements that describe an organism. (Usually yes or no questions)Diagram showing the flow of the rocks

Quiz TOMORROWCharacteristics of a mineral Names of the three main types of rocks rocks Intrusive vs. Extrusive
