1. Rock Cycle – Color and Label

2. p.45 Copy the following flow chart STRAIGHT down the right hand side…skip 3 lines after each arrow
Heat & Pressure
Compaction
Igneous & Sedimentary become metamorphic
Lithification
Squeezes layers of sediments
Weathering
Breaking down of rocks into sediments
Cementation
Glues sediments together
Erosion & Deposition
Melting & Cooling
Transporting sediments
Magma rises & solidifies to become igneous

4. Magma – formed when rock has melted under intense heat and pressure
Melting
Melting

5. Igneous Rock – formed by magma or lava that has cooled and solidified
Cooling

6. Sediments: Formed when Igneous, Sedimentary, and Metamorphic Rock is worn down by weathering and erosion.

7. Compaction occurs when sediments form layers over time, and the layers are pressed and cemented together by minerals.
Compaction

8. Sedimentary Rock – forms when sediments have compacted over time and layers form containing organic matter and fossils.
Sedimentary Rock

9. Metamorphic Rock – formed by heat and pressure that changes the rock but does not melt it.
