Bits of rock that settle in layers?
What is sedimentary rocks?

What is the process for igneous rocks to form ABOVE ground?
What is magma erupts from a volcano, which is then called lava. The lava runs down the sides of the volcano and cools and hardens to become igneous rock.

What is the process for sedimentary rocks to form?
What is water and wind over millions of years weather away or break down the particles or sediments on Earth that wash into the bottoms our oceans, lakes, ponds, rivers to create layers.

What is the process for metamorphic rocks to form?
What is igneous and sedimentary rocks are changed or morphed into metamorphic rocks due to heat and pressure.
