In this Grade 5 medium worksheet, students compare renewable and nonrenewable resources used by people every single day. They complete sentences about hydroelectric power, the three Rs of conservation, coral reefs, endangered species, smog, and rainwater harvesting. A matching activity connects examples like solar panels and pesticide runoff to the right category, helping learners group conservation actions and pollution sources accurately.
Style:
Human Impact on the Environment
Part A: Fill in the Blank
Write the missing word or number on each line.
1. Coal that took millions of years to form is a nonrenewable resource.
2. Energy made from flowing rivers is called hydroelectric power.
3. Plants that grow back each season are a renewable resource.
4. Reducing how much you use is called reduce.
5. Using something again instead of throwing it away is to reuse.
6. When ocean water becomes too warm or acidic, coral reefs die.
7. An animal at risk of disappearing forever is called endangered.
8. Smog over cities is mostly caused by car exhaust.
9. Capturing rain in a barrel for later use is rainwater harvesting.
Part B: Matching
