Renewable/Non-renewable Resources Activity Adapted from UNC-Wilmington curriculum
What is a renewable energy resource? Renewable energy is natural energy which does not have a limited supply. Renewable energy can be used again and again, and will never run out. Types: Biomass Hydro-electric Geothermal Solar Tidal Wave Wind Wood
Fake Friday WOW!!! What do you think will happen? What did you observe? Why do you think this happened?

Goal for Today Identify nonrenewable energy resources, and explain how they are harmful and also beneficial
What is a non-renewable energy resource? An energy resource that is not replaced or is replaced only very slowly by natural processes Fossil fuels are continually produced by the decay of plant and animal matter, but the rate of their production is extremely slow, very much slower than the rate at which we use them. Types: Coal Oil Nuclear Natural Gas Tar Sands and Oil Shale

Non-renewable Resources Staitons Activity Adapted from UNC-Wilmington curriculum
Ticket out of the Door What could be some effects of population growth, natural disasters, disease, and advanced technology systems on resource availability? What are some advantages and disadvantages of using renewable resources in place of non-renewable resources? List as many renewable resources as you can find in your classroom. List as many non- renewable resources as you can that are found in your classroom.
Activity Preparation The class will be divided into groups of 4. Each group will need a bag with 16 pieces of popcorn, 4 paper towels, and a pencil and paper. Teacher will need the bag with leftover popcorn to replenish the “used resources.”
Part 1: Renewable Resources Activity 1. Each team begins with 16 pieces of marshmallow. Each student must take at least 1 marshmallow per round to survive, and may take as many as he/she likes. 2. One student per team records the number of pieces each team member takes per round, and the number of pieces remaining for the team. 3. The resource is then “renewed” by half ( if there are 8 remaining pieces after round 1, the teacher will add 4 more pieces to the bag for round 2) rounds are played in this manner. The object of the game is to have the most pieces of marshmallow per team member after the final round.
At the end of the game, discuss different strategies used by teams: Some may die because they’ll consume too much of the resource early on Others may take one piece at a time and build up a store by the end Others may take more throughout but will always keep enough in reserve to be sufficiently renewed
Part 2: Non-Renewable Resources Activity 1. Students each pick up a slip of paper from a bag (there are 4 “1 st generation”, 6 “2 nd generation”, 9 “3 rd generation,” and 14 “4 th generation” slips) 2. Teacher goes to the front of the classroom with a bag of popcorn, and leads a brief discussion of what it means when one generation finds a resource and how future generations are affected by it st generation students then come up and take as much marshmallow as they want back to their seats. 2 nd generation students then do the same, followed by 3 rd and 4 th generations.
Teacher and students should then discuss: how the students acted in “using” the resource any waste that occurred (marshmallow dropped on the floor) whether any thought was given to students coming afterwards if there were protests from other students the degraded quality of marshmallow towards the end (everyone’s hands were in it before, and it’s been crushed into smaller, less desirable pieces

Follow-Up Questions Categorize the following as renewable, non-renewable or perpetual resources: A field of corn Oil in the Arctic tundra Coal in the Appalachian mountains Sunshine Trees in a forest Tuna in the ocean Sand on a beach A breeze over the Texas plains Water in a river Which resources would continue to be available no matter how much people used them? Under what circumstances would a renewable resource not be renewable?

Meet Your Nonrenewable: Coal Coal Coal, mined here in Pennsylvania is the most abundant fossil fuel It was formed millions of years ago from layers of dead organic matter It is burned mostly for electricity (600 power plants around the US.)
Time for Reflection Collins Writing Type 2 5 lines Based on all of the information presented. Do you feel this nonrenewable resource should continue to be used? Support your answer. Include both pros and cons in your support.
Meet Your Nonrenewable: Natural Gas Natural gas was formed millions of years ago from dead organic marine life building up a trapping the gas in shale Natural gas is the cleanest fossil fuel burned for electricity There is a Natural gas boom here in PA
Time for Reflection Collins Writing Type 2 5 lines Based on all of the information presented. Do you feel this nonrenewable resource should continue to be used? Support your answer. Include both pros and cons in your support.
Meet Your Nonrenewable: Oil Oil was from nearly 600 million years ago from dead organic marine life built up over time. To obtain it, well must be drilled some over a mile deep. Oil deposits can be found here in PA and under the ocean floor
Time for Reflection Collins Writing Type 2 5 lines Based on all of the information presented. Do you feel this nonrenewable resource should continue to be used? Support your answer. Include both pros and cons in your support.
Meet Your Nonrenewable: Nuclear Power Uranium 235 is the mineral mined for nuclear fission, when the atoms split it emits tremendous heat Uranium is mined very much like coal. Uranium 235 is extremely unstable and radioactive The used up fuel rods must be stored securely in order to prevent radiation from leaking.
