Fourth Grade Sustainability Study:
Food chains and Food Webs - this is the page that has the activities from class
Chain Reaction! read the first few slides to make sure you are clear on the terms. Then chose one of the food chains (northern food chain or forest food chain) and see how you do. Drag the living things to where you think they belong and then test your food chain. IGNORE the bottom where is says you have 0 correct items; it's not correct.
Try the question where it asks you to remove on animal and observe the effect on the food chain. Why do you think the game is called Chain Reaction?
