Conserving Resources

This week in science we focused on natural resources. We went on a resource hunt and found resources around our school. We also learned the difference between renewable and nonrenewable resources. We learned that it is important to conserve resources. Here is a list of 5 things we came up with that we could do at home to help conserve resources:

1. Turn off water when we are not using it. (brushing teeth, doing dishes)

2. Recycle paper and use paper to make other projects.

3. Turn off the lights when you are not needing to use them.

4. Take shorter showers.

5. Use a drying a rack outside to dry clothes instead of using the dryer

What else can you do at home to conserve resources?
