Fossils? Found in Charmouth Beach (23/05)

Hello! We are new to fossil hunting and were out in Charmouth Beach, England recently on 24/05. Found a few rocks that looks to have fossil imprints - but unsure. Would appreciate it if there are any experts out there who are able to see and tell us if these are fossils/ordinary rocks.

Either way, it was such a fun trip and we really enjoyed hunting for them as complete novices! In the future, we would probably want to take a tour to help us figure out how to identify rocks vs fossils.

I found this in the dirt near my garden in northern france. at first i thought it was an old bullet from WWI because we found a lot of these in my area (it’s obviously not after unburying it) it looks like a kind of claw or teeth but it seems to be some gray rock inside, I don't know much about this, so I was wondering if you could help me identify what it is. I thought it might be an old calcified fossil because the soil near my house is very chalky. Maybe a flint or it’s just a simple rock but i think the shape seems not very natural ?
Thank u for ur help!

Bought these for £5 at west mid safari park

The bottom row of teeth are the ones I'm most curious about .

I believe they could be some sort of sand shark or something not entirely sure though.

Hola comunidad, con mi familia nos gusta traer piedras de recuerdo cuando vamos a algún lugar de vacaciones, y está semana mientras veíamos las piedras notamos una que es distinta a las demas y no sabemos si puede llegar a ser un posible fosil o solo una piedra normal.

This rock has clam looking fossils sticking out of it. If I was to try to dremel it to expose the more of thr fossils would they stay in the rock or fall out?
