WRITE IN NOTEBOOK Food chains : show how plant life and animal life get bridged together by the things they eat. Like links of a chain
WRITE IN NOTEBOOK Food chains are important to all life on Earth. Within the chain, all organisms depend on one another to survive

Activity Time Now we are going to make a food chain together… You need to fold your paper so that you have FIVE even sections.
Foldable time! Use the paper in your notebook Follow along with teacher Fold it like a hotdog. Divide the page into 5 equal sections Wait patiently and silently for further instructions.
Draw this on your foldable… Energy Energy returned to the environment energy

Do we understand….. On one end of the chain we find plant life; at the other end we can find carnivores. Example: Tigers eat gazelles, and gazelles eat grass. These organisms are linked together in a food chain.
Do we understand….. Decomposers connect the ends of the food chains They are nature’s recyclers They return nutrients to the soil and environment to be used again
10 MINUTES COMPLETE QUIET!
Quarter 3 Review How about a round of Jeopardy?
Now it’s your turn… You have 5 minutes…. Write down 1 producer, 3 consumers, and 1 decomposer. Consumers…think of 1 herbivore, 1 omnivore, and 1 carnivore that belong together (think of things that belong together, like a eating a mouse but DO NOT use that example) Now write them down in your notebook
Now it’s your turn… You have 1 producer, 3 consumers, and 1 decomposer. Fold your paper like we did before Outside: All 5 flaps are labeled. All 5 flaps have a drawing. Energy flow arrows are included. Inside: Each type is defined. You explained your food chain and how the organism fits in it.
Role of decomposers How return nutrients to the environment Fungi on fallen logs Mold on bread
Bacteria in animal guts Role of bacteria in guts of animals and plant roots as it helps to recycle matter
