Definition: A substantial, often approximately cuboid, piece of any substance.
Alright class, settle down, let’s take a look!
That dictionary definition is quite clear, it’s true,
But “blocks” can mean so much, for me and you!
It says "substantial," meaning big and strong,
Like building materials where we all belong.
“Cuboid,” that’s a shape with length, width, and height,
A boxy form, shining ever bright!
And “any substance” – wood, stone, or even clay,
It could be bricks to build a house today.
Think of LEGO blocks, stacked up so high,
Or concrete blocks beneath the sky.
Sometimes it’s just a block of cheese you see,
A solid chunk for you and me!
So “blocks” can mean something firm and stout,
A shape and material – let's shout it out!
Does that make sense? Any questions to share?
