Starter – Anagrams Solve these anagrams – each one is to do with our current topic Adanatipot Adaptation Arctic Desert Macel Camel Polar BearHabitat Cartic Lopar Reab Rested Baithat

ADAPTATIONS Objective – Arrange organisms from a habitat into a food web Outcomes Level 4 – Must - Produce more than one food chain from a habitat Level 5 - Should – Organise several food chains in a habitat into a food web Level 6 – Could – Describe how one organism can impact another in the food web

Using a food web 1. Name the producer in this food web. 2. Name two herbivores in this food web. 3. Name two species that are top carnivores. 4. How many secondary consumers are there? 5. Which food chains include the moth?

Food chains recap From a food chain, we can tell if an organism is a producer, a herbivore or a carnivore. snailleafbirdowl

Why is it a good idea for an organism to have different sources of food? These food chains can be put together in a food web, which shows how the food chains are connected. What would the food web for these food chains look like? plantsowlaphidblue titladybird plantsmothowlblue tit plantsvolestoat plantsvoleowl

Food webs bluetit owl chiffchaff stoat vole plant aphid ladybird moth spider

What would happen if? 6. All of the owls were shot by hunters… 7. A disease kills all the voles… 8. The plants all die from drought… 9. The aphid population decreases…

Farming and Food Webs

Level ladder To get level… You might have to… 4 Draw two food chains with 3-4 links. Identify a producer, a predator and a prey. Described the damage the pests will cause to the cabbages. 5 Draw a food web that links at least three food chains. Identify the following producer, primary consumer, secondary consumer, tertiary consumer, herbivore, carnivore, omnivore Explain how each pest damages the cabbages Describe why farmers will use pesticides (pest killers) 6All of the above plus – Explain how the pesticide could cause harm to the Sparrowhawk at the top of the food chain. Discuss some alternatives to using pesticides

Peer and Self Assessment Use the level ladder as a guide Mark your partners work and look for each point at each level At the end of the task state: WWW – what went well EBI – even better if Use the tick sheet on the next slide to record any postive comments WWW & Improvements EBI
