  • Cub Scouts will need their Tiger handbook, pages 29 and 30 
  • Pencils or pens, one for each Cub Scout 
  • Crayons, enough to share 

Before the meeting: 

  1. Become familiar with what a renewable resource and a non-renewable resource is.
    • Renewable resources are physical materials that humans need and value that can be replenished at the rate it is used.  For example, bamboo flooring, bamboo can be grown at the rate at which it is used. 
    • Non-renewable resources are physical materials that humans need and value that cannot be replenished at all or it takes longer to replenish than the rate at which it is being used.   
  2. Set up the meeting space to allow Cub Scouts to complete the activity on page 29 of the Tiger handbook. 

During the meeting: 

  1. Define renewable resources and non-renewable resources. 
  2. Instruct the Cub Scout to circle the items on page 29 of the Tiger handbook that are renewable resources and place an “x” on those items that are non-renewable.  
  3. Instruct the Cub Scout to color the items on page 30 that are natural resources.   
  4. Ask the Cub Scouts and adult partners what are some things that they use every day that are renewable resources.
