The Amazing Food Web

In Te Ngahere we have been learning about food chains, a food chain is what animals eat to be able to survive. We created a food web that uses arrows to connect food sources and the food eater to one another. The arrows are there to explain how the different species feed of each other and provide energy sources to other  The reason the arrows are pointing towards the animal that eats the food is because it’s showing how the animal gets its energy transferred from other food sources. How my food web is different from the other one is I don’t have as much arrows pointing to the animals and what they eat I only have one. Another thing that is different about mine is I don't have colored arrows to explain what animal the food sources are going to. Something else that is different is that Whaea Becks one is more complex than mine. Example one: the kiwi eats the insects and then the energy gets transferred to the kiwi. Example two: the stoats eat the rats that way the rats energy gets transferred to the stoats. What was hard was figuring out how to place the arrows correctly. What was easy was finding out what food source the animals were going to connect to. Have you learned about the food sources before?
