and organisms in an ecosystem• Scavenger: an organism that discovers and consumes the
remains of dead organisms.
Adaptation Concentration Cards• Take the set of concentration cards and spread them out

Food Chain/Food Web ReviewBefore we start, who can tell me what comes first in a food chain? Why? What comes second in a food chain? Why? What comes third in a food chain? Why? What do the arrows show? What direction should the arrows be facing?
Food Chain/Food Web Cards• Take the cards and turn them face up on your table.• Based on the information on each card, make as many
food chains as possible in one minute. • Use your marker to draw the arrows to represent the flow
of energy between the organisms.• Remember the arrows always point towards the organism
RECEIVING the energy.
Food Chain/Food Web Cards cont..• Take the cards and make a food web using all of the
organism cards.• Use your marker to draw the arrows to represent the flow
