A complete, and ready to deliver, high quality KS3 lesson from Barclayfox.

(For USA - this lesson is for use between 6th to 8th grade).

This is a complete lesson from start to end, you do not need to spend many hours carefully planning, creating, resourcing and improving this lesson after each use. I have already spent those hours preparing this lesson for my students and improving it over many years. This is a very high quality lesson.

There is nothing for you to do but give it a quick look through and familiarise yourself with it.

Lesson objectives:
* Represent food chains using Pyramids of numbers.
* Describe how energy is lost as it transfers down the food chain.
