The objectives are for students to define a food chain, identify proper arrangements of producers, consumers, and decomposers, and draw and explain food chains. The lesson plan outlines procedures including an introduction, motivation through pictures, a lecture and discussion on key concepts, games to arrange pictures into food chains, a generalization, and application through student drawings. An evaluation quiz is provided to assess understanding of producers, consumers, and decomposers.

    decomposers
     Draw and explain food chains and its importance in our environment

    A. Routinary Activities
    1. Prayer
    2. Greetings
    3. Checking of Attendance
    4. Review

    Ecosystem is a community of living organisms (Plants, Animals, and


    Humans) in conjunctions with the non-living components (Air, Sun, Water) of
    their environment, interacting as a system.
    B. Motivation

    The students will be shown a picture of an environment with different living


    organisms. They will be asked to identify the living organisms in the picture and
    what those living organisms usually eat and consume that can also be found in the
    picture.

    C. Lesson Proper

    Task 1: Lecture-Discussion

    The teacher will now present the concept of food chain and its sub topics.

    A food chain is the sequence of who eats whom in a biological community to


    obtain nutrition. A food chain starts with plants or other autotroph (organisms that
    make their own food from light or chemical energy) that are eaten by herbivores
    (plant-eaters). The herbivores are eaten by carnivores (meat-eaters). These are
    eaten by other carnivores or omnivores. When organism dies, it is eaten by
    decomposers and then broken down and the exchange of energy continues.

    A producer is an organism that makes its own food from light energy (using
    photosynthesis or chemo-synthesis). Most green plants, many protists and most
    bacteria are producers. Producers are the base of the food chain.

    A consumer is a living thing that eats other living things to survive. It cannot
    make its own food. Primary consumer eats producers, secondary consumer eats
    primary consumer and so on. There are always many more primary consumers
    than secondary consumers, etc. This is because that energy is lost between each
    level.

    A consumer may be classified into three categories namely herbivore, carnivore


    and omnivore. Herbivores are animals that eat plants. Herbivores are also called
    primary consumers. Most animals are herbivores. Carnivores are animals that eat
    meat. Carnivorous animals often have sharp teeth and powerful jaw. Omnivores
    are animals that eat both animals and plants. Some omnivores include humans,
    monkeys and marmosets, chimpanzee and most bears.
    A decomposer is an organism that breaks down organic matter. Some bacteria and
    fungi and worms are decomposers. What they leave behind is used by primary
    producers.

    Task 2: Games

    The students will be divided into five groups and will be shown pictures and they
    will arrange it properly to form a food chain. They will identify the primary
    producers, consumers and decomposers.

    Set No. 1

    Answer: Grass-Grasshopper-Rat-Snake-Eagle-Worm
    Set No. 2

    Answer: Algae-Fish-Seal-Shark

    Set No. 3

    Answer: Corn-Rat-Cat-Mushroom/Fungi

    Set No.4
    Answer: Plant-Rabbit-Wild Cat-Lion-Worm

    Set No. 5

    Answer: Algae-Shrimp-Fish-Seal-Polar Bear

    Set No. 6

    Answer: Plant-Dragon Fly-Frog-Snake-Human

    Set No. 7

    Answer: Plants-Caterpillar-Chicken-Monitor Lizard-Worm

    D. GENERALIZATION

    A food chain shows how each living thing gets its food. Some animals eat
    plants and some animals eat other animals. For example, a simple food chain links
    the trees & shrubs, the giraffes (that eat trees & shrubs), and the lions (that eat the
    giraffes). Each link in this chain is food for the next link. A food chain always
    starts with plant life and ends with an animal.
    In a food chain, energy is passed from one link to another. When a
    herbivore eats, only a fraction of the energy (that it gets from the plant food)
    becomes new body mass; the rest of the energy is lost as waste or used up by the
    herbivore to carry out its life processes (e.g., movement, digestion, reproduction).
    Therefore, when the herbivore is eaten by a carnivore, it passes only a small
    amount of total energy (that it has received) to the carnivore. Of the energy
    transferred from the herbivore to the carnivore, some energy will be "wasted" or
    "used up" by the carnivore. The carnivore then has to eat many herbivores to get
    enough energy to grow.

    E. APPLICATION

    The students with their respective groups will be given Manila paper and
    drawing materials. They will be asked to draw their own food chain. Afterwards,
    they will be asked to explain their drawings.

    F. EVALUATION

    A short quiz will be given to the students. They will be asked to identify and classify
    primary producers, consumers-herbivore, carnivore, omnivore and decomposers.

    QUIZ:
    Classify The Following:
    Plants Carabao Cobra
    Humans Mushrooms Goat
    Bacteria Lion Panda
    Fungi Tiger Spider
    Algae Giraffe Deer
    Corn Worms Chicken
    Palay Cat Shark
    Horse Dog Eagle
    Trees Aligator Bird
    Whale Seahorse Grass
    Producers Consumers Decomposers
    Herbivore Carnivore Omnivore
