IGNEOUS ROCKS

are produced by fire!

Igneous rocks are formed when molten rock cools and hardens.

THERE ARE 2 TYPES:

1. Extrusive (cool outside Earth)

2. Intrusive (cool inside Earth)

6

Multiple Choice

How do igneous rocks form?

1

Igneous rocks are formed by heat and pressure

2
Igneous rocks are created by volcanic ash
3
Molten rock cools and solidifies
4

Igneous rocks form through weathering and erosion

7

Multiple Choice

Rock are classified as intrusive or
extrusive based how they were
formed.

We can tell whether a rock is
intrusive or extrusive by looking at
the size of its crystals.

Intrusive rocks have larger crystals because they cool slower inside of the Earth.

Extrusive have smaller crystals
because they cool so fast on the Earth's surface.
