Goals for this unit
  • Describe ecosystems, food chains, and energy transfer; explain erosion and weathering.
  • Design experiments that change one variable and record results.
Activity 1: Food chain

Draw or describe a simple food chain (3–4 organisms). Who eats whom?

Activity 2: Energy

Give one example of light, sound, or heat energy. How do we use it?
