Pupil Response

 

Phase 1

Presentation of Advance Organiser

 

Teacher presents the objective of the lesson in the classroom.
A newspaper report related to fuel shortage and increasing electricity demand is presented in the class.

Teacher asks students whether they have heard news about petrol price increase or electricity shortage.

Where do we get energy from?
Can all resources be used forever?
What will happen if petrol or coal finishes?

Considering the responses given by the students, teacher shows videos related to solar energy, windmills, coal mining and petroleum extraction.

Teacher asks:

Why do we get sunlight every day?
Can petrol be formed again quickly after use?

Then teacher displays a concept map with the help of a chart showing classification of natural resources.

Natural Resources

Renewable Resources — Non-renewable Resources

Teacher also introduces the idea that some resources are limited and therefore need protection.

 

 

Phase 2

 

Presentation of Learning Materials

Teacher presents the lesson.

Resources obtained from nature for human use are called natural resources.

Some resources are available again and again in nature. These are called renewable resources.

Examples:

·         Solar energy

·         Wind energy

·         Water

·         Forest

·         Biomass

·         Hydropower

Some resources take millions of years to form and may get exhausted after use. These are called non-renewable resources.

Examples:

·         Coal

·         Petroleum

·         Natural gas

·         Minerals

·         Diesel

·         Uranium

Teacher explains the importance of protecting reNon-renewable resources are limited. Excessive use may lead to scarcity in future. Therefore, we must use resources carefully and conserve them.

Teacher discusses ways to protect resources:

·         Saving electricity

·         Using renewable energy

·         Reducing fuel consumption

·         Planting trees

·         Recycling materials

sources.

 

 

Phase 3

Strengthening Cognitive Structure

 




Renewable Resources → Replenished naturally
Non-renewable Resources → Limited and exhaustible

 

Students are given activities to classify resources into renewable and non-renewable categories.

Teacher asks:

Why should we protect non-renewable resources?
Which resources are more environment friendly?

Students respond and summarize learning.

 

 


Social System
