What do you think is the meaning of the quote? Use analysis tactics: Read the quote (What I see), Think about what you already know, and then draw conclusions • “When I say I believe in a square deal I do not mean… that I believe it is possible to give every man the best hand…All I mean is that there shall not be any crookedness in the dealing.” Theodore (Teddy) Roosevelt
Roosevelt’s Square Deal • Government is an umpire: purpose is to make sure everything is fair
Brainstorm with tables • What kinds of things should Roosevelt work on to ensure a “square deal”
Turn back to definitions • Look up YOUR OWN definition for conservation • Share your definition with the table
Natural Resources • Occurs naturally in the environment • Some we need for survival • Ex. Types of minerals, lumber
Brainstorm with groups • On the other side of the paper, brainstorm as many natural resources as you can • Remember, these are items that we USE that are naturally occurring in the environment
