This teacher’s guide provides a comprehensive lesson plan aimed at introducing students to the concept of resources and their classifications, including natural, human, and human-made resources. The 60-minute lesson is designed to engage students through inquiry-based discussions, hands-on activities, and collaborative categorization of items as either renewable or non-renewable resources. Essential vocabulary introduces students to key terms and their meanings, while real-world applications, such as the analysis of smartphones, underscore the importance of resources in our economy and environment. The lesson encourages students to explore sustainability and the implications of resource management for future generations, culminating in a reflective task to design a sustainable community while balancing resource use.
