Natural Resources Renewable Resource Can be replaced Resources will grow back or could easily be replaced Examples: Plants, animals, trees, water Non-Renewable Resource Cannot be replaced Resources that take 1,000 to millions of years to grow back or replace themselves Examples: Minerals, metal, coal, oil, natural gas Inexhaustible Resource Cannot be used up Resources that can be used over and over again as long as they don t get damaged or polluted Examples: Sun, wind, ocean tides Instructions: Look at the pictures below. Determine what type of resource it is. Write the answer on the line next to the picture. Inexhaustible Renewable Non-renewable Non-renewable Renewable Spring Lesson 4 - Grade 5 12

The Water Cycle Instructions: Complete the experiment and observe what happens. Then answer the questions. 1. Look at the materials you have received. You should have one Styrofoam cup, one clear plastic cup, and some ice. 2. Wait for the teacher to pour the hot water into the Styrofoam cup. Caution: Be careful with hot water, severe burns can occur. 3. Place the clear plastic cup tightly on top of the Styrofoam cup. Make sure that no vapor is being released through the sides. 4. Place some ice on top of the clear plastic cup. This will help the cup become cooler. 5. What type of resource is water considered? Why? Renewable. It replaces itself when it goes through the water cycle and returns to earth as rain. It still needs to be carefully managed and used wisely to keep the cycle going. 6. What are the processes in the water cycle? Explain. The water cycle works like this: The sun heats water on earth. The heated liquid water turns into steam or vapor and rises into the air (evaporation). As the vapor rises, the temperature drops and it cools off, forming tiny droplets of water that turn into clouds (condensation). When the clouds get heavy and can t hold the droplets anymore, they fall as rain back onto the earth (precipitation). Spring Lesson 4 - Grade 5 13

7. What caused the water to evaporate in this experiment? In reality, what causes the water to evaporate? Heat from the kettle caused the water to evaporate in the experiment.

Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout Would Not Take the Garbage Out! Shel Silverstein Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout Would not take the garbage out! She'd scour the pots and scrape the pans, Candy the yams and spice the hams, And though her daddy would scream and shout, She simply would not take the garbage out. And so it piled up to the ceilings: Coffee grounds, potato peelings, Brown bananas, rotten peas, Chunks of sour cottage cheese. It filled the can, it covered the floor, It cracked the window and blocked the door With bacon rinds and chicken bones, Drippy ends of ice cream cones, Prune pits, peach pits, orange peel, Gloppy glumps of cold oatmeal, Pizza crusts and withered greens, Soggy beans and tangerines, Crusts of black burned buttered toast, Gristly bits of beefy roasts The garbage rolled on down the hall, It raised the roof, it broke the wall Greasy napkins, cookie crumbs, Globs of gooey bubble gum, Cellophane from green baloney, Rubbery blubbery macaroni, Peanut butter, caked and dry, Curdled milk and crusts of pie, Moldy melons, dried-up mustard, Eggshells mixed with lemon custard, Cold French fries and rancid meat, Yellow lumps of Cream of Wheat. At last the garbage reached so high That it finally touched the sky. And all the neighbors moved away, And none of her friends would come to play. And finally Sarah Cynthia Stout said, "OK, I'll take the garbage out!" But then, of course, it was too late The garbage reached across the state, From New York to the Golden Gate. And there, in the garbage she did hate, Poor Sarah met an awful fate, That I cannot now relate Because the hour is much too late. But children, remember Sarah Stout And always take the garbage out!
