Presentation Transcript

  1. Sedimentary Rocks Sedimentary rocks are formed when little sediments pile up on each other and then little minerals cement it together. They usually form in a stream and a river. When the stream or river dries out that’s what forms a sedimentary rock. It takes thousands of years to form a sedimentary rock. Some of the rocks are called breccia, halite, and sandstone. On the next page those are the rocks that we are going to talk about.

  2. Credits We found are information on how rocks are formed. We also found are information at the interactive rock cycle. Next we got some of the information from are teacher Mrs. Whitehead. Are last bit of information came from sedimentary rocks we even copied some of the pictures of the rocks and put it on are documents.
