The lithosphere is loosely defined as the outer "rocky" portion of a planet's crust.
Have a look at the link below and see if that is what she needs.
EDIT: Well played first answerer! Cut and paste MY answer and link. I believe your original answer was "Lol." Very insightful.

lithium is in rocks- that might be what the teacher wants
there is a lithosphere
The word root lith means rock - lithology, lithograph, lithography, monolith, etc.
But I don't know of any rocks that actually start with lith.
Do you mean Lithfication?
Its not a rock but it is a step in the process of making a metamorphic rock.
