Classify renewable resources
Free printable Grade 5 science worksheet for "Classify renewable resources" — practice earth resources. No-prep, print or assign online.
Fifth-grade students classify renewable resources in this Earth and Space Science worksheet, learning to distinguish energy and material sources that naturally replenish — such as solar, wind, and water — from those that do not. Teachers can use it to anchor a unit on resource management and sustainability, or as a pre-discussion organizer before students weigh the tradeoffs of different energy choices. Understanding renewable versus non-renewable resources equips students to reason about environmental decisions affecting their own communities.
Learning objectives
- Classify resources as renewable or non-renewable based on their rate of replenishment
- Give examples of renewable energy sources and explain how each is replenished
- Explain why distinguishing renewable from non-renewable resources matters for environmental decision-making
