What this worksheet teaches

• Explain how trees and plants keep air and soil healthy.
• Compare natural resources that can be replaced with those that cannot.
• Suggest practical school or neighbourhood actions that reduce waste or save water.

How to use this worksheet

Use your own bin as the demonstration. Look at what your family threw away yesterday, and ask which items could have been avoided, reused or recycled. Grade 3 students often know the recycling rules in theory but have never applied them to a real, mixed pile of rubbish.

Sample questions from this worksheet

1. Which gas do plants take in?
2. What is a storm?

Frequently asked questions

Can this be used in class?

Yes. The action questions work well as a group discussion or a small class project, and the pollution questions work as individual written practice.

My child gives very short answers. Is that a problem?

At Grade 3, examiners look for a reason attached to the answer. Encourage the word 'because' in at least half the answers - that one habit lifts the quality of a whole page.

Are renewable and non-renewable resources covered here?

In simple form, yes - resources that can be replaced, such as trees and water, compared with fuels and minerals that cannot. Detailed energy sources come later.
