Sample rock cycle order questions

Choose the sequence that lists the rock-cycle steps in the correct order. These examples come from the Easy setting; every generated worksheet draws a fresh set.

  1. Order: a simplified rock-cycle path.

    Magma → Igneous rock → Sediment · Sediment → Igneous rock → Magma

  2. Order: an igneous rock turns into sediment.

    Weathering → Igneous rock → Sediment · Igneous rock → Weathering → Sediment

  3. Order: magma becomes igneous rock.

    Igneous rock → Cooling → Magma · Magma → Cooling → Igneous rock

  4. Order: loose sediment hardens into rock.

    Burial → Compaction → Cementation · Burial → Cementation → Compaction

Check the sample answers
  1. Magma → Igneous rock → Sediment
    Magma hardens to igneous rock that breaks into sediment.
  2. Igneous rock → Weathering → Sediment
    The rock is broken down into sediment.
  3. Magma → Cooling → Igneous rock
    Magma cools and hardens into igneous rock.
  4. Burial → Compaction → Cementation
    Sediment is buried, compacted, then cemented.

Practice focus

In the rock cycle, rocks change from one form to another through repeating steps. Weathering and erosion break rocks into sediment that is deposited and compacted into sedimentary rock. Heat and pressure make metamorphic rock, and melting then cooling makes igneous rock. Reading these steps in order shows how one rock type becomes another.

How this practice can help students

In the rock cycle, rocks change from one form to another through repeating steps. Weathering and erosion break rocks into sediment that is deposited and compacted into sedimentary rock. Heat and pressure make metamorphic rock, and melting then cooling makes igneous rock. Reading these steps in order shows how one rock type becomes another. Generating the page again keeps the same learning goal while changing the questions, so a learner can revisit the skill without repeating the same items.

Review and next steps

Ask the learner to say what made one answer better than the others. Grade placement is a planning guide for choosing practice. The registry records standard-code mappings as unreviewed, so these pages are not a claim of alignment with a national standard.
