Key Stage 2 (Years 5 & 6)
​
FOOD CHAINS & FOOD WEBS
In this workshop pupils investigate the interdependence of plants and animals within a freshwater habitat. We explore food chains, energy flow and plant nutrition by- observing different creatures from the Soanes Centre pond and how they interact. Finally, pupils construct a food chain or food web of their own to take back to class.

Animals including humans - Identify that animals, including humans, need the right types and amount of nutrition, and that they cannot make their own food; they get nutrition from what they eat.​​
