Create Your Own Food Web Project
Because food webs are typically an elementary/middle school topic, I created this higher level assignment for use with my 9th grade biology class. The assignment asks students to randomly select an animal that they have never heard of before, research that animal, and then create their own food web that includes the animal. Students are then asked to label the producers, primary consumers, secondary consumers, tertiary consumers, detritivores, omnivores, carnivores, and herbivores on their food
