Then answer each question.  \nMore Than Rocks and Stone  \nHow does a pile of rocks send a message? When does a stack of stones tell a story? The answer depends on who piles the rocks and where you find the stack of stones.  \nThe Inuit build stacks of rock and  \nstone they call an inuksuk (ih-nook-sook) . The name means ‘in the likeness of a person’. Inuksuk can often be seen in pictures of the Arctic. The Inuit build them on the flat artic land.  \nIt takes skill to build an inuksuk. It also takes skill to understand one. These skills pass down through the Inuit people.  \nAn inuksuk may be any size. It might have big rocks or small stones. It might be one rock, or many stacked with care and purpose. Some inuksuk can be seen for miles, even in a snow storm.  \nAn inuksuk may be any shape. Some have flat slabs, while others contain round boulders.  \nThe inuksuk can give directions. They can act like a road sign or a map. Picture a rock in the shape of a triangle that points the way. Imagine stones set in aline, from large to small, marking a trail. Their silent sign says, “Go this way.”  \nSometimes an inuksuk gives a message. They tell of good places to fish and hunt. An inuksuk with an antler may help someone find food.  \nOther inuksuk send a warning. They might point to a place of deep snow or an unsafe place to cross a river.  \nEach inuksuk has its own meaning. To the skilled eye, each one tells a story.  \nExercises:  \n1.
