In Science this week, we identified the main parts of a
food chain: producers, prey and predators. We discussed that it is possible
for an animal to be both a predator and prey. A mouse, for example, is a
predator because it eats other animals, such as caterpillars. It is also prey because it is eaten by other
animals, such as foxes. After we discussed this, we worked in table groups to label animals that are fall into the predator/prey/producer
and consumer categories. Finally, we worked collaboratively to map a food chain
process and visited Forest School to take some photos.
