Simple food chain activity perfect for key stage 1 and key stage 2.

Såg dessa fantastiskas affischer här HÄR. De är gjorda på en indisk reklambyrå och har vunnit pris …underbara!!! Dessutom jättebra bilduppgift, antingen i grupp eller enskilt under lite längre tid. Här är förslag på hur det kan se ut om man ska göra näringskedja för svensk skog… Lodjur---räv----hare------blad… Jag har använt färgat papper och klippt dit detaljer förutom ögon och morrhår som målats dit i tusch 1. LO 2. Räv 3. Hare Sen limmas alltihop på färgat papper, jag tog rött i munnen… Glöm inte blad eller annan växt längst in!

I've seen loads of great food chain activities online. What possessed me to make my own? Well, truthfully, I've been itching to make some sort of war card game for ages. This seemed like the perfect opportunity. To set the stage for our activity, we read a few books. The Magic School Bus book provides great detail (and who doesn't love Ms. Frizzle?!?). Snap! is a wonderfully simple picture book that reminded me of "The Old Lady Who Swallowed a Fly." It would be perfect for younger kids. When we were finished, it was time to play. (Download a 5-page PDF with the game cards here.) I dealt the entire deck of cards to my son and I. Then we each turned over one of the cards in our deck. The player with higher card in the food chain takes both cards. When the whole deck has been gone through, the player with the most number of cards wins. There are four types of cards in the deck: herbivore, omnivore, carnivore, and plant. Of course, remind your child that many of these animals live in different habitats, so this is just pretend. When players turn over the same type of card, a duel may be necessary, whereby additional cards are turned over. See all the scenarios below. Either decide which animal is more fierce or draw two more cards to break the "tie." Turn over two more cards to see which player wins the round. The player with the herbivore card wins the round and takes both cards. The player with the carnivore/omnivore card wins the round and takes both cards. Want a great chapter book to pair with this activity? Why not get another dose of Ms. Frizzle? (My son's reading this now.)

Final product wise, this might just have been my FAVORITE project this past school year. I am so unbelievably proud of the work these 5th graders did on these! I found this project here via Pinterest. Thanks a faithful attempt! I Can Statements: I Can talk about stylized art I Can use the Library resource A-Z Animals Encyclopedia to research a food chain that includes 3 or more animals I Can show a food chain mouth-in-mouth using stylized images of plants and animals Day 1: Students came in with this image on the screen... I asked them to figure out what they all had in common, eventually they ended up describing stylized without even knowing it (I love when that happens!) and I revealed the vocabulary of stylized. To better explain I showed them this awesome graphic I put together in lucidpress.... After a bit more discussion we had a "quiz" where I put up an image and they had to guess stylized or realistic. They did perfect. Then I showed them our inspiration image... They just wrapped up a science unit about ecosystems and food chains so it was the perfect project to connect to the classroom. After explaining the I Cans and the how to do the research and navigate the site they were using for research, they grabbed laptops and got to work filling out the packet below. There was quite a bit of sketching involved but it really seemed to help them understand how to break down their animals and plants. Day 2: After I approved their sketches they got to work! They had an option to draw and color with colored pencil or to collage with paper. We took about 4 class periods total on this, 1 for intro and research, and the rest were workdays. Next time I will probably have them writing something to go along with them when they are displayed. I just can't contain how happy these make me!

This was a collaborative project I did with one of the Science teachers at my school. He was teaching his kids about food chains and wanted an art project to go along with it. He found THIS image via Pinterest as initial inspiration for the project. UPDATE: The poster was designed by art director and illustrator Dhanashri Ubhayakar for the magazine Sanctuary Asia, an Indian nature and wildlife conservation magazine. I turned the digital image into a collage project using construction paper. I used 12 x 18" construction paper. Have a background colour (in my case, turquoise). Then start with your largest animal (the top predator, I guess... the Science teacher explained this part to the kids, heh, heh) I folded my paper vertically so I only had to draw half the polar bear and it also made it symmetrical. I collaged on the eyes, nose and teeth from scraps of paper. Then make all the other animals slightly smaller... My messy workspace below.... Ok- once you have all the animals (our students were required to have 3 animals plus a plant) it's time to layer them and glue it all together. This took some fiddling and such, but I found it easiest to lay it all out and then start from gluing the smallest middle part first (the plant- I lost my mini tree) and work your way up. I used dots of white glue. It went faster than using a glue stick. Grade 7 student results!

Food Chains: What is a food chain?A food chain is a flow of energy from a green plant to an animal and to another animal and so on. Examples of food chains.

This free download includes 21 cards of varying images and the remaining cards have food chain vocabulary. These cards can be used at any age. I use them with kindergarten but vocabulary cards make the activity applicable to the higher grades. There are 4 pages of cards with 8 cards per page, ready to laminate and use with students. I include the vocabulary terms: Plant Eating (herbivore) Meat Eating (carnivore) Plant and Meat Eating (omnivore) Producer Decomposer Consumer Primary Consumer Secondary Consumer Tertiary Consumer Quartenary Consumer Sunlight Use these cards to teach important principles of how energy moves through an ecosystem. There are a number of ways to use the cards: Students can categorize the images by plant eating, meat eating, or both. They can line up the cards to show simple food chains, or make more elaborate food webs. Please visit my blog to get tips on how to implement this activity successfully. http://www.stemmom.org/2012/10/food-chain-activity-worm-unit.html
