Talk partners:

Key Vocabulary
-
Producer – a plant that makes its own food
-
Prey – an animal that gets eaten
-
Predator – an animal that eats other animals
-
Food chain – shows how energy moves from one living thing to another
Example:
🌱 Grass → Rabbit → Fox
Explanation:
-
Grass is the producer
-
Rabbit is prey (the fox eats it)
-
Fox is the predator
-
Can the rabbit be both predator and prey?
Yes! (If it eats plants, it’s a predator of plants and prey to foxes)
In your table groups decide whether the animals are prey or a predator or both.
Below is another example of a food chain.
Looking at the pictures below, let's see if we can make 2 different food chains.
____________________ → ____________________ → ____________________
____________________ → ____________________ → ____________________
Let's try some more.
Your turn.
Using the pictures below, try to find as many food chains as you can.
You can help each other but you all need to record in your books.
Record with words and arrows and not pictures.
