Why Rock Strata Form. Sedimentary rocks form as more-or-less horizontal layers because of the way in which sediment (sand, mud, rock debris, shell fragments and so one) is deposited.
Enjoy our sedimentary rock facts for kids. Find interesting information and a range of examples that help explain what sedimentary rocks are and what makes them different from other kinds of rocks. Sedimentary rocks are formed by sediment that is deposited over time, usually as layers at the bottom of lakes and oceans. This sediment can include minerals, small pieces of plants and other organic matter. The sediment is compressed over a long period of time before consolidating into solid layers of rock.
