Third Grade: Day 58 – Food Chain

If you happen to ask Isabel what her favorite subject in school is, she’ll tell you it’s science.

Since the school year began we have been going over animals. First it was mammals, then birds, amphibians, reptiles and lately we’ve been talking about animals in the ocean and sea.

Today we talked about food chains in the ocean and sea. Mainly the topic was sharks and then we talked about fishes and their different forms of defense (to keep themselves from being eaten!).

Our “Do Together” assignment was to build a food chain from the meat we had during lunch. Well, for lunch we didn’t have anything exciting, just a turkey sandwich and after some research online we learned that our turkey probably was raised at a breeder farm for maximum meat production. So with that in mind, this is what she drew…

Not all that exciting,
however we had a great discussion about other food chains besides our bred turkey.
