Producers, Consumers and Decomposers, Oh My!

The Purpose Scientists around the world disagree on the common needs of the living organisms. The “World Earth Organization” has decided to create an investigation where they will interview organisms in different ecosystems about their basic needs and how they meet these needs in their environment. You will be an organism being interviewed.

The Task 1.You will be grouped into an ecosystem. 2.You will choose which type of living organism you are going to be and find out how you get your energy. 3.You team will create a poster or another product classifying their organism into: (1)Producer-gets their energy from the sun (2) Consumer-gets their energy from other living things (3) Decomposer-feed on dead organisms and wastes.

Pond Ecosystem Team #1 Choose an organism, draw a picture of it and describe how you get your energy: Algae water liliesAlgaewater lilies fish frogs water bugsfishfrogswater bugs birds turtlesbirdsturtles salamanders bacteriasalamandersbacteria

Woodland Ecosystem Team #2 Choose an organism, draw a picture of it and describe how you get your energy : Beetles Cicadas Forest PlantsBeetlesCicadasForest Plants Opossum Kookaburra CaterpillarOpossumKookaburraCaterpillar Echidna Fungus Acorns SquirrelsEchidnaFungusAcornsSquirrels

Desert Ecosystem Team #3 Choose an organism, draw a picture of it and describe how you get your energy : Kangaroo Rats Cactus GrassesKangaroo Rats CactusGrasses SnakesSnakes Joshua Tree MonarchJoshua Tree Monarch Desert Tarantula Dung Beetle
