Our Big Book of Vocab Words were:
• Food Chain
• Food Web
• Producer
• Consumer

Today, we read #26 Food Chains and Food Webs to get a quick review of the facts. Food Chains and Webs should always start with the sun, the sun gives it's energy to a producer and then producers to consumers. Producers give their energy to a special type of consumer called a herbivore or an omnivore. Then, these consumers are eaten by other omnivores or carnivores. The students should remember that the arrows stand for energy being transferred from one organism to the next.

Finally, the students played a game with their table mates that focused on inherited traits!!!

  2. If you click on the BBC link on the right, and then on Gut Instinct that's on the bottom of that page, it's a fun game. There are a few questions that we don't really discuss, but most of it is a REALLY good review. :)
