Earth's Changing Surface (Rocks and Minerals) (ConceptLinks Literacy and Lnaguage through content)

By Kate Boehm Jerome

Rocks are made of minerals. Properties like color, streak, luster, hardness, and texture help identify minerals. The three groups of rocks are igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic. Rocks continually change from one form to another during the rock cycle. Weathering and erosion change Earth's surface by natural forces such as wind, water, gravity, and glaciers.
