Standard 3
Objective 1: Compare rocks and minerals and describe
how they are related.
a) Recognize that most rocks are composed of minerals.
b) Observe and describe the minerals found in rocks (e.g., shape, color, luster,
texture, hardness).
c) Categorize rock samples as sedimentary, metamorphic, or igneous.
3:1 Minerals
Pure substances (FeSiO)
Solid at room temperature
Inorganic
Crystal structure
Naturally Occurring
3:1 Properties of Minerals

Use the website to identify 3 different minerals.
3:1 Rocks
Made of many different minerals.
Rocks are grouped by how they
are made.
Minerals a classified by structure and
what they are made of.
3:1 Types of Rocks
Igneous- Come from cooled magma and have
crystals.
Sedimentary- When sediments harden this
layer often contains fossils
Metamorphic- When igneous or sedimentary
rock gets put under a lot of heat or pressure it
turns into a different type of rock.
3:1 Quiz
1. What are the characteristics of Minerals?
2. How do you find hardness?
3. How do you find streak?
4. What is the difference between cleavage
and fracture in minerals?
5. What is the difference between rocks and
minerals?
6. What are the 3 main types of rocks?
