This is the picture of Anna's rock cycle project that we made as a class project. Sorry, it might not be a very good picture but it is the best I could do. If you can't see the labels then I will list them for you starting at the label to the right of the cloud :
Weathering (the process of breaking down rocks) which creates
sediments that
erode or travel to water. When the
sediments reach the water they are deposited or laid down. After time the sediments are
compacted and cemented, which creates a
sedimentary rock. The
sedimentary rock undergoes
heat and pressure. Which creates a
metamorphic rock. The
metamorphic rock melts creating growing
magma. The
magma shoots upward
erupting out of a
volcano. The
lava cools and
solidifies forming
igneous rock. If the
igneous rock goes into the ground it can be
uplifted by earthquakes.
