This week in science we have been looking at animals and their habitats. We found it particularly fun when we began to research food chains. Here’s why…

Yesterday we were all given a role in the food chain. We were either producers (plants), herbivores (plant eaters), omnivores (plant and meat eaters) or carnivores (meat eaters). We looked at how each part of the food chain gains its energy, by consuming. Not only this but we also looked at the impact upon a food chain if an element was removed from it and realised the importance of each part of this chain

Mya was an oak tree and got her energy from the sun.

Harvey was a fungi and he was able to get his energy from all the dead plants and animals.
