The Earth is made up of 3 Types of Soil/rocks.

Today we will talk about how the earth forms its soil and rocks.

Is formed when

• Leaves fall to the ground

• Bones from dead animals lay on the ground

• Sticks

• Dust , rain, and trash

• And other things fall to the ground

• Meta-Morphic rock is formed from deep inside the earths core. Pressure and heat builds up to push rocks together and push them up to the surface.

• Wind and rain uncovers the rock to show them to us.

• These rocks are formed from violent eruptions from Volcano’s they shoot up into the sky and fall to earth. When the lava cools and hardens it is ready to grow plants and flowers.

In conclusion we now know that the earth is made up of three types of rocks, they are.

• Sedimentary

• Meta-Morphic

• Igneous

These rocks together form the continents and sea floor. They create the mountains and valley’s where we live and play.

Thank-You.
