Arctic Food Web and Food Chains

I'd like to introduce a new product in our shop, the Food Web Biome Bundle Pack, which my son and I recently used to discuss life in the Arctic.  Our Food Web Biome Bundle Pack contains 10 sets of food web activities of animals in the 10 biomes worldwide: Arctic, boreal forest, deciduous forest, desert, mountain, ocean, pond, rainforest, savanna, and tundra.  This post features our Arctic Food Web and a sneak peek at some of the biome sets.

INTRODUCTION USING MONTESSORI 3-5 PART CARDS

This Montessori-inspired 5-part card introduces the child to what a food web, and food chains are and describes the role of each organism in the food web.

Note that these cards are color-coded (border) based on the biome.  

BUILD YOUR OWN ACTIVITY

I have provided printable cards, arrows, descriptions, and labels to help the child recreate the diagrams and add more details. The animal cards are available in real images, clipart, and blackline versions, so you can choose the one that fits your needs. The arrows will show the energy transfer, and the child can use the labels to identify the animals based on their diet and their role in the food web.

Information Summary Cards and Research Papers

I have also included some informational cards that summarize the role of each animal in the Arctic food web. For older children, they can conduct their own research on the Arctic food web instead of using the informational cards, and fill in the information on their own.

Also included (my favourite set) are 32 task cards that provide questions based on the food web and chain diagrams. It requires thinking to analyze the diagram

Here's a sneak preview of other sets:

The bundle is now available in our shop or you can get it on TPT.
