This online resource has general information about the rock cycle.

The resource is an interactive website where students can learn all about rocks and geology: the science of rocks.

They can learn how rocks can be identified, how they are formed, and how they change over time.

Students can also learn how to identify the three major kinds of rocks and learn how to tell them apart.

They can also learn what kind of changes can happen to rocks, and about the processes that cause these changes.

Putting all this knowledge together, students will be able understand that the rock cycle—a continuous pattern of change—helps explain what happens over and over again to the rocks of our Earth.
