- The Rockin' Life Of Marly
- Metamorphic Rock
- Hi, I'm Marly the metamorphic rock. I was formed by time, pressure, and heat.
- Now the melting inside the Earth is melting me into the molten material, magma.
- Lava is magma that comes out of Earth.
- I'm now shooting out of this volcano as lava.
- I've started to cool and crystallize! Aren't I shiny?
- Igneous Rock
- (I'm now an igneous rock!)
- Weathering is the process that breaks down rocks and other substances.
- Oh No! Now I'm beginning to weather!
- Sediment is broken up pieces of rock.
- SEDIMENT
- Now I'm spread everywhere. That means that I'm . . .
- I am get chemically weathered. Chemical weathering is when rock is broken down through chemical changes.
- I've become so small because I've been weathered by acid rain,
- Acid rain is rain made by pollution in the atmosphere.
- I'm getting weathered mechanically, which means that rock (me), is getting physically broken into smaller pieces.
- This is an example of abrasion because rock (me) is being worn down by other rock. Ouch!
- !
- Now I'm being turned in to rock again through the cementating and compaction of these waves.
- Sedimentary Rock
- Yay! I'm now whole again thanks to those waves.
- Sedimentary rock is material dropped on another.
- TIME!
- HEAT!
- PRESSURE!
- Hooray! I'm my self again. Good ol' Marly the metamorphic rock.
- THE END
- For now . . .
