I would assign each student a biome and their project would consist of placing the animals present in the correct order, to make a food chain.

This website contains a video about an ocean food chain. It is kid friendly and somewhat humorous. I chose this website because young students would enjoy watching this video and still gain knowledge of food chains. It only covers an ocean food chain, failing to touch on other environments.

This is the St. Louis Zoo's website. It contains all the events it holds along with information about some of the animals. I chose this website as a source for a field trip. It is a good place to take students to because it is fun, but they are also learning about animals. I would take my students to the zoo after the lesson on food chains. They would have knowledge about what animals eat in terms of other animals. I would have them create their own food chains on the animals they saw at the zoo.

This website contains an interactive game on food chains. Users are to place the animals in the correct order they would appear in the food chain.

I would allow my students to play this game in their own time, after they have finished their work, or during computer time.
