Print Prep
In this lesson, students develop their thinking about the predator/prey relationships between living things. In the activity, Eat or Be Eaten, students play a card game in which they make food chains with predators and prey, and producers and consumers. The students who make the longest food chains win the game!

Prep Instructions

We suggest students work in groups of four. Homeschool students will need a partner to play the “Eat or Be Eaten” game as it is designed for 2 to 4 players.

Each group of players will need enough table space to lay out their cards as they form food chains. Clusters of student desks work well for this.
