Summary: This week in class we learned about the rock cycle. The three main types of rocks are: Sedimentary, Metamorphic, and Igneous. Sedimentary rocks are formed by lot of pieces of you guessed it, sediment or smaller pieces of rock that have been broken down by weathering and erosion, weathering and erosion is when weathering breaks rocks down contentiously and erosion moves those pieces of sediment and sometimes they form igneous rock you know its igneous if it has small pieces of sea shells and other sediment in it. Metamorphic rocks are formed by extreme heat and pressure underground you know its metamorphic when they have ribbon like layers. Igneous is formed by magma and when it cools and hardens you know its metamorphic when it is glass like.

SP 4 Analyzing and Interpreting Data
How we analyzed data was we did a bunch of activities on the computer. How we interpreted data was we put all our research into a bunch of  work sheets.
