Social Studies

In Social Studies, we have learned about the industries. There are three main industries; they are called the primary industry, secondary industry, and tertiary industry.

Primary Industry: the primary industry is resource-based. Primary industry extracts natural resources from the environment and turns them into semi-finished products. Primary industry is the first step in making the goods we need and use. Some examples are fishing, mining, logging, and farming.

Secondary Industry: the secondary industry is manufacturing-based. Secondary industry takes semi-finished products from the primary industry and turns them into finished products. Some examples are furniture making, house construction, factories, etc.

Tertiary Industry: the tertiary industry is service-based. The tertiary industry does not produce goods. Tertiary industry provides personal and business service to consumers. Some examples are a cashier, clerk, waitress.   .
