Cavern Life: The Food Web
Pupils explain the importance of elements on a food web. They realize that without light there can be no life. They perform various activities based on grade level.
Curated OER
Down the Drain
Students examine the following concepts: If water supplies contain materials which rot or decompose, oxygen is used. Decay and decomposition require vast supplies of oxygen. The use of oxygen for decay of wastes may be a life or death...
