Magma that has been cooled down and became rocks are called intrusive rocks, as to how rocks that cooled down from lava are extrusive. Some examples of igneous rocks include obsidian, granite, and basalt.]]> 2019-12-09 17:20:52 UTC https://padlet.com/466992/mmmyesrocks/wish/421727326 466992 https://padlet.com/466992/mmmyesrocks/wish/421732523 Sedimentary rocks are formed by sediment collected over time, carried by erosion and other natural methods, and they usually in the form of layers at the bottom of lakes and oceans. This sediment can contain minerals, small plant parts and other organic matter. Over a long period of time, the sediment is condensed before consolidating into solid rock layers.]]> 2019-12-09 17:29:07 UTC https://padlet.com/466992/mmmyesrocks/wish/421732523 466992 https://padlet.com/466992/mmmyesrocks/wish/421732677 Metamorphic rocks form deep within the Earth when either igneous rocks, sedimentary rocks, or other metamorphic rocks are exposed to heat and pressure. Uplifting and erosion help bring metamorphic rocks to the surface of the Earth. Rocks that have a branded or layered appearance to them are considered foliated, as opposed to rocks that do not have that appearance, which are nonfoilated. Some metamorphic rock examples include sandstone, shale, and limestone.]]> 2019-12-09 17:29:25 UTC https://padlet.com/466992/mmmyesrocks/wish/421732677 466992 https://padlet.com/466992/mmmyesrocks/wish/422833266 When an igneous rock is crushed into little shards of sediment, the sediment is eventually packed together with other pieces of sediment to form a sedimentary rock.]]> 2019-12-11 16:54:50 UTC https://padlet.com/466992/mmmyesrocks/wish/422833266 466992 https://padlet.com/466992/mmmyesrocks/wish/422833480 When Sedimentary rocks are heated with immense amounts of heat, it will melt down to magma.
