EASYTEACHING.NET

Overview:

A foldable booklet where students complete readings and activities about food chains, including a word search and drawing and labelling food chains. Designed for students in years 5 and 6.

Learning Objectives:

  • Understand the concept of food chains and the roles of producers, consumers, and predators.
  • Reinforce learning through a variety of activities, including word searches and drawing food chains.
  • Develop creativity and organisation skills by labelling food chains accurately.

How the Activity Works:

Students fold the booklet and first complete a reading section that introduces the concept of food chains and the roles of producers, first-order consumers, and second-order consumers. Next, they work through a word search, identifying key terms related to food chains. Finally, students draw and label their own food chains, demonstrating the flow of energy from producers to consumers. This booklet provides a hands-on, interactive way for students to consolidate their understanding of food chains while engaging in a variety of activities.
