What children learn in Level 64
- Everything you buy was made with productive resources. Let's find out what it takes to make a wooden chair.
- Natural resources come from nature: land, water, soil, trees, and things that grow, like cotton and peanuts. The chair's wood comes from trees.
- Human resources are people and the work they do, called labor. A carpenter cuts and builds the chair.
- Georgia has lots of natural resources: pine trees, peaches, peanuts, cotton, clay, and kaolin, a white clay used in paper.
- And Georgia's workers, farmers, bakers, builders, and many more, are its human resources.
Georgia Standards of Excellence in Social Studies:
