Science Starter: Have your workbook out and complete the learning target and success criteria for today!
Learning Target: I will learn the energy role of a producer/autotroph and a consumer/heterotroph, including herbivore, carnivore, omnivore, and decomposer.
Success Criteria: I can build a food chain that shows the path of food energy from the sun, to the producer, and to a series of consumers in an ecosystem by using arrows to demonstrate energy flow.

AGENDA

3. Vocabulary Consumers that feed upon producers
Primary Consumer
Consumers that feed upon producers
Secondary Consumer
An organism that feeds upon primary consumers
Tertiary Consumer
An organism that feeds upon primary and secondary consumers
Omnivore
An organism that eats producers and other consumers (ex: bird eats berries & insects)
Predator
An animal that hunts and eats other animals

4. Vocabulary
Autotroph (Producer)
An organism that can make its own food from the substances available in their surroundings using radiant energy from the Sun
Heterotroph (Consumer)
Organisms that cannot make their own food and rely on other organisms for nutrition
Herbivore
An organism that feeds only on producers
(ex: only eats plants)
Carnivore
An organism that eats other animals; usually predators (ex: lions & wolves)
Prey
An animal that is hunted and consumed by other animals

5. 1. Food Web Each arrow can be read as “energy transfers into”
Arrows point to who is eating

10. Do the Right Thing, Even When No One is Looking!
Launch:
Do the Right Thing, Even When No One is Looking!
Answer: If one organism dies out, the organisms that eat it will still have a food source.
