G2 – Natural Resources

A Natural resource is a thing people can use which comes from Nature: people do not make it themselves. Your homework is to make a poster about one of natural resources. Examples of natural resources are air, water, wood, oil, solar energy, wind energy, hydro-electric energy, coal water, minerals. Petroleum used in buses is not a natural resource, for example, because people make it.

  1. Choose a natural resource.
  2. Think of the ways it is used in our lives.
  3. Please include some pictures or drawings along with short descriptions.
  4. Please turn in your poster with this paper.

The first project is to create a calendar. Each student will be designated a day, and will produce something similar to the following:
