8th- Earth's Surface Rock Cycle Day 2

​Earth's Surface: Rock Cycle Day 2

​Yesterday we completed our vocabulary words. We also learned about constructive and deconstructive forces. Today, we are going to learn about the rock cycle.

​REVIEW!!!!

Multiple Choice

Constructive forces

• shape the Earth's surface by building mountains and landmasses

• shape the Earth's surface by destroying mountains and landmasses

• shape the Earth's surface by messing up mountains and landmasses

• shape the Earth's surface by reconstructing mountains and landmasses

Multiple Choice

Deconstructive forces

• slowly wear away mountains and every other feature on Earth's surface.

• quickly wear away mountains and every other feature on Earth's surface.

• sometimes wear away mountains and every other feature on Earth's surface.

• never wear away mountains and every other feature on Earth's surface.

​1. Get three notecards
2. Definitions:
a. igneous rock: “fire-born,” meaning that they are formed from the cooling and solidification of molten (melted) rock
b. Sedimentary Rock: Sedimentary rocks are formed from pre-existing rocks or pieces of once-living organisms. They form from deposits that accumulate on the Earth's surface.
c. Metamorphic rocks: started as some other type of rock, but have been changed from their original igneous, sedimentary, or earlier metamorphic form. Metamorphic rocks form when rocks are subjected to high heat, and /or high pressure

Multiple Choice

igneous rock:

• “fire-born,” meaning that they are formed from the cooling and solidification of molten (melted) rock

• “water- born,” meaning that they are formed from the cooling and solidification of molten (melted) rock

• “fire-born,” meaning that they are formed from the cooling and heating of molten (melted) rock

• “fire-born,” meaning that they are formed from the solidification of molten (melted) rock

Multiple Choice

Sedimentary Rock:

• Sedimentary rocks are formed from pre-existing rocks or pieces of once-living organisms. They form from deposits that accumulate on the Earth's surface.

• Metamorphic rocks are formed from pre-existing rocks or pieces of once-living organisms. They form from deposits that accumulate on the Earth's surface.

• Sedimentary rocks are formed from non- existing rocks or pieces of non-living organisms. They form from deposits that accumulate on the Earth's surface.

Multiple Choice

Metamorphic rocks:

• started as some other type of rock, but have been changed from their original igneous, sedimentary, or earlier metamorphic form. Metamorphic rocks form when rocks are subjected to high heat, and /or high pressure

• started as metamorphic rock, but have been changed from their original igneous, sedimentary form. Metamorphic rocks form when rocks are subjected to high heat, and /or high pressure

• started as one other type of rock, but have been changed from their original igneous, sedimentary, or earlier metamorphic form. Metamorphic rocks form when rocks are subjected to low heat, and /or low pressure

​1. Start a new page
