3 Main Types of Rocks
Rocks are classified into three groups: igneous, sedimentary, and metamorphic—so you can always ask yourself, “Fire, water, or pressure?”

Another day, another lab! 🐶s loved modeling how igneous, metamorphic & sedimentary rocks are formed. LaunchED 🐶s also participated if they had materials or watched the lovely @AprilBarnesOCPS’s videos on @nearpod! @drbradshaw_ocps @CDLocps #BulldogStrong#OCPSci5#RockTypes 🍫
...Other than the odd bold grit slab all my hardest leads are on other rocktypes. And my favourite routes would be stupid big things in other countries like Vestpillaren on Presten in Lofoten or Dream of Wild Turkeys in Red Rocks. Or all of Fairhead.
