  1. Natural Resources Renewable and Non-renewable Supply and Demand

  2. Renewable and Nonrenewable ResourcesWhich one of the following resources is renewable and which one is non-renewable?

  3. Turn to page 93 and create a T-chart labeled with renewable resources on one side and non-renewable resources on the other side underneath your warm-up. Start with the definition on each side then list 3 examples. renewable non-renewable

  4. Foldable: Supply and Demand of Natural Resources. Students will create a six page foldable. The first three pages of the foldable will be on Supply and the last three pages will be on Demand. Students must title the foldable “Supply and Demand of Natural Resources”.

  5. Page One • The natural resource we will base our activities on is oil. • Answer question 1 in your notebook and predict the answer to the next 2. 1. How did you use oil today? 2. Where do we get our oil? 3. How is oil made?

  6. Theory of Continental Drift 1. The earth was once a supercontinent called Pangaea.

  7. 2. The continents slowly drifted apart over millions of years. This created seas where there is land today. Jurrassic Period Cretaceous Period

  9. 4. Today areas that were once covered with ancient oceans now have huge amounts of oil.
