List of structures

A sandcastle is something you might want to build when you are at the beach. You can pile up damp sand and mold it into any shape you like, using your hands or using a bucket as a mold.

Sheds are usually found in backyards or on farms for storing tools, machinery or just things the owner isn't using. Sheds are not meant to live in, and often don't have windows or more than a dirt floor. Sheds are usually made out of wood or metal.

A sign is something that conveys some kind of meaning. Signs might be made up of pictures, words, or a combination of both. Many signs are just symbols, so that people will recognize what they mean no matter what language they speak. Signs don't need to be painted on a board - for example, deaf people communicate with sign language, using their hands to make symbols.

A silo is a large cylindrical structure for storing a large amount of something. Silos are most often seen near farms for storing grain, but can also be used to store coal, wood chips or even missiles.

A sphinx is a large statue of a lion with a human head. Sphinxes are usually drawn lying down, and are sometimes drawn with the wings of an eagle too. The picture is of a very famous sphinx statue in Egypt.
