Then answer each question.  \nRocks  \nAre all rocks the same? No way! Rocks can be different shapes, sizes, textures, and colors. There are 3 different types of rocks that  \ncan affect what a rock looks and feels like. The three types of rocks are sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic.  \nSedimentary rocks are a mixture of dirt, rocks, mud, shells,  \nand other materials that are on the bottoms of oceans and other bodies of water, and get compacted together over many years. Sometimes you can even see different layers in sedimentary rocks. These types of rocks feel grainy, like sand, and are easier to crumble than other types of rocks. Sometimes sedimentary rocks will have plant or animal imprints!  \nThe second type of rock is the igneous rock. These rocks are created from magma that cools and hardens. Many rocks start out as igneous rocks. Igneous rocks have glass crystals filled with minerals in them. They do not usually have layers, and are very smooth.  \nThe third type of rock is the metamorphic rock. These rocks are formed when the other types of rocks are subjected to intense heat and pressure to change them. Metamorphic rocks are hard and smooth, like igneous rocks.  \nGrade 4 Reading Comprehension Worksheet  \nJust like plants and animals have a life cycle, rocks can go through a rock cycle! Many rocks start from magma or lava, so they are igneous rocks. The igneous rocks could get broken up in a river or stream and settle to the bottom of a lake. Over thousands or mi llions of years , the broken up rocks could get compacted into a  \nsedimentary rock. The sedimentary rock could get exposed to intense heat, and change to a metamorphic rock. Then the metamorphic rock could get covered by many other rocks and end up deep in Earth’s crust. It may melt and turn into magma, and the cycle could start over again. The rock cycle is different than a lifecycle of a plant or animal, though, because a rock doesn’t have togo through the cycle in order, and it may not go through all the stages.  \nEven though there are only three different types of rocks based on how they’re formed, each type actually has many different  \nsubcategories of rock. For example obsidian, granite, and basalt are three types of igneous rocks. This is why there are so many different colored rocks. Many people love to collect rocks because of how different each one can be.  \nGrade 4 Reading Comprehension Worksheet  \nQuestions:  \n1. What are sedimentary rocks?
