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.
• Explain how pollution in one place affects living things somewhere else.

How to use this worksheet

Split the sheet across two sittings, doing the pollution questions first and the 'what can we do' questions second, after a short walk outside. Noticing one real problem nearby makes the action questions specific instead of a list of memorised phrases.

Sample questions from this worksheet

1. Which activity saves water?
2. What is air made of?

Frequently asked questions

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.

How do I answer 'why does it matter if only I do it?'

A fair question at this age. Multiply it: one person, one class, one school. Comparing one dripping tap with thirty makes the scale visible without a lecture.
