Lesson 3: Rocks and Minerals This lesson covers: describing the rock cycle. You will explain that there are sedimentary, igneous, and metamorphic rocks, each with distinct properties, and that rocks are made of one or more minerals. You will also identify minerals by their properties. QuickTime™ and a TIFF (Uncompressed) decompressor are needed to see this picture.

Describing how landforms and rock layers are created, and understanding how the three types of plate boundaries cause different landforms.
