What educators are saying

Very fun interactive lesson on the food web. My students loved connecting all the strings to see who would eat who.
SUCH a good, engaging resource! My kids truly got to see what a food web was and how big they can be! We had a hard time distinguishing food webs/chains and this helped them a ton!

Description

Engage students with an exciting interactive food chain and food web activity. Using yarn, students create interconnected chains, enhancing their comprehension of producers and consumers. Suitable for multiple grade levels, this hands-on experience creates a deeper understanding of ecosystem interactions.

Each student is assigned either a plant or an animal and they sit in a big circle and use yarn to interconnect food chains with the entire class.

This set of pages can be used for several activities that include concepts about food chains, food webs, consumers vs. producers, the different levels of consumers, herbivores vs. carnivores vs. omnivores and autotrophs vs. heterotrophs. There is also a page on pollution to have the discussion started about what happens to the entire ecosystem when part of it is damaged.

I have used this activity for second graders all the way up through 6th grade with fun results.

There are 18 Illustrated slides drawn with my original clipart and each consumer has a list of who it eats and who eats it. For the lower classes you may have to prompt them with that information but with the older classes I tend to let them figure it out themselves.

Included with this set are the directions for several different activities that you can use with the materials. The food chains are mapped out for the teacher and detailed directions are given for how to create the food web with the students sitting in a circle on the floor with yarn. What better way to have the students learn this important concept?

What’s included in this resource:

  • 18 plant or animal images with a second page that includes what the organism eats and what eats it
  • List of included food chains
  • 16 Key Terms
  • ”Pollution” page
  • Chart to classify organisms into producers, 1st consumers, 2nd consumers or top predators
  • Reflection Questions

Emphasis is on describing the conservation of matter and flow of energy into and out of various ecosystems, and on defining the boundaries of the system. Assessment does not include the use of chemical reactions to describe the processes.
NGSS5-LS2-1
Develop a model to describe the movement of matter among plants, animals, decomposers, and the environment. Emphasis is on the idea that matter that is not food (air, water, decomposed materials in soil) is changed by plants into matter that is food. Examples of systems could include organisms, ecosystems, and the Earth. Assessment does not include molecular explanations.
