Rock
• Rock is a solid mixture of crystals of one or more minerals
• Rocks are categorized into 3 types on how they are made
• Each rock in each category is classified (named) by its TEXTURE and COMPOSITION
![Page 3: Rocks, Rock!](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568165df550346895dd8fa7d/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Igneous Rock
• Definition: Igneous rock is rock formed when magma cools and solidifies into rock. (Rock from Volcanoes)
• Extrusive vs. Intrusive– Intrusive Rock- When magma cools slowly under the earths
surface- causing large grained rocks– Extrusive Rock- when magma erupts from a volcano it is
called lava, lava cools quickly causing fine (small) grained rocks
• Felsic vs. Mafic– MAFIC: Low silicon level rocks which are dark colored rocks– FELSIC: High silicon level rocks which are light colored rocks

Review Time
• Turn to your neighbor and explain to him/her what igneous rock is, and what the 4 types of igneous rock are.
• How are rocks grouped (3 ways)

Quiz Time
• Which of the following best describes this rock
• A Extrusive Mafic• B Intrusive Mafic• C Extrusive Felsic• D Intrusive Felsic

Sedimentary Rock• Definition: Rocks that form when sediments
are compacted and cemented together• Sediments are small fragments of rock –like
sand• Rocks must go through several steps before
they become sedimentary– Weathering– Erosion– Deposition– Compaction and Cementation aka lithification

Sedimentary Rock Examples and special featuresClastic- rock
fragments
Chemical- minerals and water
Organic- Made from shells, skeletons, fossils and minerals
Conglomerate- large fragments
Sandstone medium sediment
Chemical limestone Fossiliferous limestone

Review Time
• Turn to your neighbor and tell them the difference between sedimentary and igneous rock.

Metamorphic Rock
• Definition: Rock that forms when the texture and composition of preexisting rock changes due to heat or pressure.

Energy and the Changing earth
• We talked about how energy changes in food pyramids and food webs, and how that affects living organisms. Refresh:
___________ _____________________________
• now lets talk about energy and how earth’s rocks are affected- what is chemical/mechanical energy?
![Page 14: Rocks, Rock!](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568165df550346895dd8fa7d/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Rock cycle
![Page 15: Rocks, Rock!](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568165df550346895dd8fa7d/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Decision Time
• Where and how can you see chemical/mechanical energy in this new system?
• Now that you have seen some examples of rocks, and you have seen the rock cycle. If you wanted to build a strong, long lasting monument to yourself for the world to see what type of rock would you use and why?

Weathering
• Definition: breakdown of rock into smaller and smaller fragments.
![Page 17: Rocks, Rock!](https://reader035.fdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022062501/568165df550346895dd8fa7d/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Mechanical Weathering
• Mechanical weathering: The breakdown of rocks by physical means- by ice, wind, water force, gravity, abrasion

Erosion
• The removal and transport of sediment and material by wind, water or ice (glaciers)

Deposition
• Definition: Depositing sediments, or the laying down of sediments from movement.
