1. THE ROCK CYCLE How are all rocks interconnected?

2. Learning Targets Be able to read and follow the rock cycle Be able to fill in and describe the rock cycle diagram

3. Lets start with magma What happens when magma/ lava cools? ◦ Forms igneous rocks

4. Now lets break the rock down What is this process called ◦ Weathering

5. What are pieces of broken rock called? ◦ Sediments What is the process of making sedimentary rocks called? ◦ Lithification

6. Lets bury the rock What type of rock will form if great heat and pressure are applied? ◦ Metamorphic

7. Lets get back to magma How do we get back? ◦ Melt the rock

8. How can we simplify this? We use a simple diagram called the ROCK CYCLE What do you think of when you hear the word “CYCLE”? ◦ Bi/ Tricycle? ◦ Water Cycle? ◦ Circles!?

9. Igneous Sedimentary Metamorphic Magma/lava Sediments Heat and Pressure Weathering and erosion Melting Cooling Lithification Weathering and erosion

10. Learning Targets Be able to read and follow the rock cycle Be able to fill in and describe the rock cycle diagram

11. Rock Cycle Silent Ball!!!

12. What forces cause igneous rocks to become metamorphic? 1. Lithification 2. Melting 3. Heat and Pressure 4. Sedimentary rocks

13. What must happen to a sedimentary rock to get back to an igneous rock? 1. Melting 2. Melting then Cooling 3. Heat and Pressure 4. Weathering, erosion, lithification

14. Weathering and erosion of which type of rock will form sediments? 1. Sedimentary 2. Igneous 3. Metamorphic 4. All of the above
