Hello my name is Raisa and I am going to be telling you about rock stars. There are a lot of cool types of rocks and they are all rock stars.
The rock basalt belongs to the Igneous family. Basalt started as a hot liquid rock called magma. When magma cools it hardens into igneous rock. Basalt cooled more quikly above ground. Where the rock cools afects how it’s shaped and it made of.
The rock shale, belongs to the Sedimentary rock family. The rock shale started out as lots of different rocks, shells, and tiny skeletons. The rocks, shells, and tiny skeletons got washed to the bottoms of lakes and oceans. More and more layers of the rocks, shells, and tiny bones built upp on the others that created a rock. The bits and pieces have been pressed into rock after a few million years. The rock shale is smooth because the water washes over it, and over time the water becomes smooth.
The rock marble is from the Metamorphic family of rock. The rock marble comes from rocks that already exists, like the Sedimentary family. The rock marble started out as members of the Igneous family and the Sedimentary family. Some of the marble rocks were made after intence pressure over a long time. the rock marble comes from limestone. Limestone is a soft member of the Sedimentary family of rock.
