Lesson 3 - Natural Resources

As a class, discuss the differences between Man-Made Resources and Natural Resources.

Create a blog entry entitled, "Watery Earth Lesson 3: Natural Resources." 

Create a 2-Column Chart with the titles: "Man-Made Resources" and "Natural Resources." 

1. In each column, insert another 2-Column Chart.  (See the sample post on the right for a visual.)
   
2. Find at least six photographs from Google Images that fit each category and drag them into each column.  Make sure that you have the same number of images on both sides when you are done.  You cannot search for "Natural Resources" or "Man-Made Resources" on Google; you must search for the items you want to put on each side individually.
   
3. Link the photo back to its source (to give credit).  Do NOT turn on Lightbox.
   
4. Type a caption that describes the picture.

At the bottom of your blog post:

1. Write a definition for Man-Made Resources (in your own words) and Natural Resources.
2. Why is "water" considered a Natural Resource?
3. List three or more Natural Resources that you use daily.
