This lesson introduces coral reefs and how humans are affecting them by using a comprehension starter. It then has a collective memory tasks where pupils learn about the environment in which coral reefs are found.
It contains a link for a podcast with a few questions to ensure that pupils have listened and taken away the key points.
The lesson then progresses into food chains, webs and energy transfer on coral reefs using Finding Nemo as an example.
It contains a feed web game, which requires some printing, but little preparation. They then look at a Finding Nemo food web and discuss what would happen if characters were removed as well as energy transfer.
For the homework pupils must use the simulation on explorelearning.com (the simulation is called the same as the worksheet title)

There is a lot of material but the podcast wouldn't open and the homework activity (which looks the most useful) appears to rely on you being a paid up member of Gizmo. It's only 5 pound I suppose and the starter activity looks alright.
