Description:
Students create food chains and food webs to
interpret energy flow in ecosystems.
Goals:
Distinguish between food chains and webs.
Objectives:
•Design and create food chains and food webs.
•Explain the flow of energy within an
ecosystem.
Warm Up: Watch Video
Q = List 10 Facts about food chains/webs from
the video.
A = vary
Insert Bill Nye video here
Many Food Chains in each
Ecosystem
If you take all of the food
chains in an ecosystem you
get a Food Web
Use the packet of pictures to…
1. Categorize the organisms into:




Original Source of Energy
Producers
Herbivores
Carnivores
2. Now make three food chains
 Include a primary producer, primary consumer,
secondary consumer, top consumer
I’ll check these BEFORE we can move on!
Exit Ticket:
Q=
1. Which is more complex - food chains or webs?
2. What do trophic pyramids and food chains have in
common?
3. What directions do the arrows point in a food
web/chain?
A=
1. Food Webs
2. Both relate the transfer of energy through means
of food.
3. Where the energy is GOING (e.g. to predator)
Objectives:
•Design and create food chains and food webs.
•Explain the flow of energy within an
ecosystem.
