My Rock

There are lots of different types of stones and rocks and every stone has a story or belongs to a stone family. I am going to tell you about the stone I found and how it looks like, how it feels like, where it can be found, and what can we use them for.

How Does It Look Like?
When you find a stone you will see that a stone doesn’t have only one colour it has the maximum of 3 colours. The most common coloured stone is coloured Grey, Black, and White.

There are many stones in the world that are shaped differently. Some have rounded shaped, and some have pointy edges. The one I found doesn’t have pointy edges, it’s a bit rounded and in the shape of an oval.

Where Can It Be Found?
There are many kinds of rocks in the world. The one I found looks like it was from rivers, lakes, or from the oceans. Some stones you can tell that they were from a river or from a lake because the colour of the stones will be dark.

What Can Stones Be Used For?
Stones are very strong. People use them for making houses, building, roads, and other strong things. There is an island call Palm Island in India, it is shaped like a palm tree. The people made the island because they thought that if there was a problem they can go to the island to survive. They built 20 hotels and made a new city in the sea, people are still living on the island. They used billions of stones and rocks to keep the island strong.

Rocks and Stones are very special, they really help us.
