Kick off your advanced lesson with these thought-provoking oil bell ringers. The prompts encourage high school students to consider how oil is formed and accessed, identify common products made from crude oil, and guess the top oil-producing countries. These questions activate prior knowledge and set the stage for a deeper, more technical discussion about this critical energy source.
