Lesson 4: Earth's Resources
 
Nature is full of things that are ready for people to use. These things are called natural resources.


Our most important natural resources are water, sunlight, and soil. We need each of them to stay alive.


We use wood from trees to make paper and build houses. We use sand to make glass. We use iron for pipes, cans, tools, and many other things.
