Download or read book The Adventures of Iggy the Rock written by Jennifer Malyka and published by Partridge Publishing Singapore. This book was released on 2019-04-09 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Adventures of Iggy the Rock is a humorous tale about the journey of a rock named Iggy and his travels to the earth’s crust. Taking place millions of years ago on Pangea, young readers travel back in time to experience the growing pains of Iggy as he becomes an igneous rock, a sedimentary rock, and then a metamorphic rock. By animating each stage of the rock cycle in a comical manner, the story transforms the rock cycle from ordinary to sublimely terrestrial with human-like characteristics and wisdom. The main characters of this story include the wise and ageless Grandpa Neous, the hilarious conglomerate rock, Seddie, and a rock group called the Sediments. As there is little science fiction out there about the rock cycle, this story is an awesome resource for introducing the basics of the rock cycle to middle school learners. With a little over 1,400 words, this story is a perfect feature as a fictional story in a science textbook.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a huge volcano erupts, scorching-hot lava pours down its slopes. Soon, however, the lava will cool and become solid rock. This book explores how igneous rock is formed from magma, featuring a clear, accessible, step-by-step explanation of the process. Readers will not only learn about different types of igneous rock, they will also be introduced to some amazing igneous rock formations, as well as find out how people use this special kind of rock. Filled with information perfectly suited to the abilities and interests of an early elementary audience, this colorful, fact-filled volume gives readers a chance to learn and develop their powers of observation and critical thinking. From stunning photographs to high-interest facts about igneous rocks, this book makes learning about Earth’s geology a lively, engaging experience.

Download or read book Igneous Rocks written by Richard Spilsbury and published by The Rosen Publishing Group, Inc. This book was released on 2015-07-15 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It’s hard to imagine the fiery orange lava that explodes from volcanoes as a hardened, black mass of rock, but that process is what forms igneous rocks—one of the three kinds of rock that make up Earth’s surface. This important Earth science concept is explored in the text, which also covers the different kinds of igneous rocks, how to use their physical properties to identify them, and what clues they offer about Earth’s past. The text also clues readers in to how we use this tough rock as a resource, and how people living near volcanoes use their environment to their advantage. Sidebars, fact boxes, and interesting photos supplement the text’s information-rich content.

Download or read book The Interpretation of Igneous Rocks written by Keith Gordon Cox and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-04-09 with total page 459 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our aim in writing this book is to try to show how igneous rocks can be persuaded to reveal some ofthe secrets of their origins. The data of igneous rocks consist of field relations, texture, mineralogy, and geochemistry. Additionally, experimental petrology tells us how igneous systems might be expected to behave. Working on this material we attempt to show how hypotheses concerning the origins and evolution of magmas are proposed and tested, and thus illuminate the interesting and fundamental problems of petrogenesis. The book assumes a modest knowledge of basic petro graphy, mineralogy, classification, and regional igneous geology. It has a role complementary to various established texts, several of which are descriptively good and give wide coverage and evaluation of petrogenetic ideas in various degrees of detail. Existing texts do not on the whole, however, deal with methodology, though this is one of the more important aspects of the subject. At first sight it may appear that the current work is a guidebook for the prospective research worker and thus has little relevance for the non-specialist student of geology. We hope this will prove to be far from the case. The methodological approach has an inherent interest because it can provide the reader with problems he can solve for himself, and as an almost incidental consequence he will acquire a satisfying understanding.
