Are you looking for a fun and interactive addition to your food chains unit that's different from a standard worksheet? This science food chains craft project activity is hands-on, with different animal templates to choose from. Ideal for science centers, interactive notebooks and to support learning about ecosystems, feeding relationships, and habitats. The templates This resource has templates for 4 food chains (lion, grizzly bear, shark, and snake). Each template, excluding the snake, has 2 similar designs (one for easy cutting) and all have 2 label options (one set includes the words 'producer' and 'consumer'). Just choose the template(s) that works best for your children. Lion: 3-stage food chains (grass, zebra, lion) Shark: 4-stage food chain (seaweed, fish, seal, shark) Bear: 4-stage food chain (algae, shrimp, salmon, grizzly bear) Snake: 4-stage food chain (leaf, snail, frog, snake) Children color the animal template and food chains stages, sequence the stages, glue, cut and fold. Once folded, students can hide their food chain by bringing the 2 halves of the template together, then gently pull apart to reveal the inside. Extension activity A blank tiger template for a food chain with 3 stages is included. Students can use this to draw/write a food chain. Some basic research is required for this. How much prep is required? There is minimal prep required. Print the designs you plan to use on letter-sized paper. Students need colored pencils, scissors, and glue. Directions showing where to fold are included (you may wish to make an example beforehand for those who might find folding tricky). There is a version for both US and UK spelling/paper size. Is this resource editable? No, this resource is not editable.
