1. Rocks

2. Rocks are
mixtures of
Minerals
Organic Materials &
Other Rocks

3. Rocks are… Classified by how they were formed & by their texture.
There are 3 main types of rocks:
Igneous
Sedimentary
Metamorphic

4. Rocks are Continuously changing from one form to another.
This is called the rock cycle

23. Igneous Rock Formed when magma or lava cools, hardens , & crystallizes
There are 2 types of igneous rocks
Based on where magma or lava cools
Intrusive (Plutonic) underground
Extrusive (volcanic) above ground
