Cut, paste, fold and draw in order to create two different pages for an Interactive Science Notebook. Page 1 includes Natural Resources vs. Manmade Resources and "Where would you find?" different types of resources. Page 2 includes a pair of envelopes, one that is for items that come from animals and the other for items that come from plants. Students cut out the names of different resources and place them in either the plant or animal envelope. It also includes another flower foldable that identifies 6 different energy sources and identifies them as renewable or nonrenewable. See thumbnails to see a set of finished pages as well as the original reproducibles.

Answer key is in full page sheets so that you can have students go around and self-correct or fill in as a carousel activity.

This is a great project for STORMS! Students are handed one of four storms (just photocopy, cut and pass out) and they research the causes/effects, regions affected, storm preparedness, etc. Then, students can use their research to create an infographic (example attached), PowerPoint, Prezi, Booklet, e-Book, Poster, etc. The possibilities are endless, as this is a very open-ended project. Four storms included: Tornado Hurricane Blizzard Thunderstorm Each checklist is 1/2 Sheet. Each graphic organizer is a full page, but students can choose the one that they like the best.
