The students have been working on describing and drawing how oil is taken from the oil sands and this assignment will be due on Tuesday, January 13. Also due the same day, are the answers to three short questions that the students wrote in their binders. These questions are:
1. Why is oil, gas and coal so important to Alberta? Name 3 reasons.
2. Describe how we use oil, gas and coal in our everyday lives. Give one example for each fossil fuel.
3. How is the land used to extract oil from the oil sands? What happens to the land after they are finished?
Next week, we will be discussing alternative sources of energy as well as the role of agriculture in Alberta.
Have a good weekend!
