Food web - card sort or cut and stick

Food web - card sort or cut and stick

(44)
Orginally designed for a high ability year 8 group to cut and stick the organisms, drawing lines to show the feeding relationships. The blank card was left for the pupils to draw the sun, but this could be taken out/sun drawn on for the pupils depending on ability. This activity was also used with an SEN year 9 class for revision. The cards were laminated and cut out for them, as were the arrows. Pupils then sorted the cards into simple food chains and expanded as they wished - these were then noted down in their books.

A simple method for pupils to follow - designed for high ability year 8 group, but the images would allow for differentiation for lower ability groups. I have designed the worksheet just to give the simple method which will be used by pupils to determine which pen was used to write a 'mystery note'.
