The Web Of Life - Overlapping Food Chains
Students perform an activity in which they discover what happens when food chains overlap in an ecosystem and discover the three components of a food web.
Curated OER
Webbing the Food Chain
Students compose a visual representation of the food chain cycle using Inspiration educational software.
Curated OER
Food Chains and Webs
Students identify the organisms found near their school or house and observe them. In this food chain lesson students examine how an organism gets their energy and then fill in a chart to create a food web with the organisms they listed.

Antarctica Food Chain
Young scholars visit an interactive web page. For this food chain lesson, students visit an interactive web page displaying an example of the food chain in Antarctica. As young scholars move their mouse over the images, captions appear...
Curated OER
Links in the Chain of Life
Using the prairie dog community as an example, middle school ecologists examine the food web. Pairs of learners take one species in the community and research its role in the ecosystem. They share their findings with the rest of the...
Curated OER
Food Webs
Students create a bulletin board display illustrating food chains they make from a list of ocean organisms. Students also play a game showing what happens when one of the organisms is removed from the food chain and how they are all...
