In January we studied food chains. We learned that every link in the chain is important to every other link in the chain. In order to keep the life cycle of all the other living things in the food chain stable nothing should be removed from the cycle or added. We made paper links and put together our own food chains depicting a chain that included the sun, grass, a cricket, a frog, a snake and a hawk. Then we watched the wonderful Flash Video (below) that helped us to understand this better.
