There are three classes of rocks: the igneous, the sedimentary, and the metamorphic rocks.
These rocks are classified according to how they are formed.
Igneous rocks are considered the primary or parent rocks of the crust.
They are formed by the cooling and hardening of hot rocks (magma)from within the mantle of
the Earth.
Igneous means formed from "fire."Examples are granite and basalt.
Sedimentary rocks are considered secondary rocks. These rocks are formed by hardening of
layers of sediments.
Key Concepts / Understandings to
Rock fragments, animals and plant remains, or chemicals that build up on the bottom of lakes
be Developed
and oceans formed the sedimentary rocks.
Examples are sandstone and limestone.
When rocks that already exist have changed into new kinds of rocks because of temperature
and pressure changes, they become metamorphic rocks.
Meta means "to transform"or "change."Examples are marble and slate.
Rocks differ in color, texture, and hardness.
Some rocks have dark and light bands and others don't have. However, others are soft.
Some rocks are smooth to touch but others are coarse-grained.

4.1 Introductory Activity
Motivation:
Who among you here have gone to the seashore or to the beach?What have you
5 minutes noticed while you were in the seashore or in the beach?
Do you notice different classes of rocks?Do they have the same color? texture? and hardness?

Answer these:
1. In what ways do rocks differ?
2. Describe how rocks differ?
3. Which of these rocks are glossy? coarse-grained?

Activity 1 ( Observing and Diferrentiating Rocks )
What you Need :
5 different rock samples 5 transparent plastic bags
1 magnifying lens 1 hammer
What to do:
Be cautious in holding the rock samples. Some might have sharp
and rough edges. Some might have chemical composition or dirt that
may cause allergy or irritation on your skin.
1. Use small samples of different rocks. Place the rocks on the table.
Label them from A to E.
2. Observe each rock under the magnifying lens. Take note of the
color of each rock.
3. Touch each rock. Take note of the rock's texture.
4. Put each rock inside a transparent plastic bag. Pound each with a
hammer carefully. Observe what happens to each rock.
5. Enter your observations in a table like this.
Questions:
1. What are the classes of rocks?
2. What is an igneous rocks?, sedimentary rocks?, metamorphic rocks?
3. In what ways do rocks differ?
Possible answers
1. Igneous rocks, sedimentary rocks, metamorphic rocks
2. Igneous rocks- are considered the primary or parent rocks of the crust. They are formed by cooling and
hardening of hot rocks ( magma) from within the mantle of the earth.
Sedimentary rocks are considered secondary rocks. These rocks are formed by hardening of layers of
sediments.
Metamorphic rocks when rocks that already exist have changed into new kinds of rocks because of
temperature and pressure changes.
3. Rocks differ in color, texture, and hardness
Application
Questions:
1. Of these rocks, which were thought of as the primary or parent rocks of the crust?
the secondary rocks?, Why?
2. Were igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic rocks formed in the same way?
3. How these rocks were formed? Explain.
Possible Answer:
1. Igneous rocks the primary or parent rocks. Sedimentary rocks are considered secondary rocks
2. No, they are formed differently.
3. Igneous rocks are formed when melted rock cools solidifies. Melted rocks may come in a form of
magma, when it is found underneath the earth's surface. It can also come in the form of lava,
when it is released unto the Earth's surface during a volcanic eruption.
