As spring enters the air, below you will find a quick science instructional unit that is fun and interactive! Food chains and food webs are much easier to teach with visual addends and hands-on activities to display and keep. When you are teaching parts of the food chain/web, having students illustrate their own picture and label the different producers, consumers and decomposers.
FOOD CHAIN:
A food chain illustrates the path that energy takes from creature to creature. Food chains begin with plant-life, and end with animal-life. 
  • Click here to assemble a food chain!
  • Play review game here.
FOOD WEB:
The interlocking and interdependence of food chains.
Build your own food web!
PARTS OF A FOOD CHAIN/WEB:
Producer- Able to produce their own food (plants).

Consumer- Unable to produce their own food, so they must consume other animals/plants.
Herbivore- Eats only plants.
Carnivore- Eats only meats.
Omnivore- Eats both animals and meats.
*Practice sorting these consumers!

Decomposer- Breakdown materials and make the soil rich.

*Game to practice producers, consumers & decomposers.
*Worksheet to assess student learning.
APPLY YOUR NEW KNOWLEDGE!
Worksheets that coincide with food chains/webs.
