D. Science Concept:
A food web is a pattern of overlapping and interlinked food chains.
The energy pyramid illustrates how the amount of stored energy from the sun is reduced
as an organism gets away from the producer.
E. Process Skills
Observing, Describing, Differentiating
III. Procedure
A. ENGAGE
• Science Song “ Food Web”
• Checking of Assignment
1. Which is the producer in the food chain? ________________________________
2. Which is the first-order consumer? _____________________________________
3. Which is the second-order consumer? ___________________________________
4. Which is the third-order consumer? _____________________________________
5. What is a food chain? ________________________________________________
_________________________________________________________________

2. • Motivation
Show the illustration
How many food chains are there in this illustration?
B. EXPLORE
• Setting of standards to be followed in doing the activity
• Group the pupils into four
• Let each group perform the activity.
C. EXPLAIN
* Discussion / Analysis
Answer the following questions
1. How many food chains are there in the illustration?
2. Which is the producer?
3. Which are the primary consumers?
4. Which are the secondary consumers?
5. Which get the greatest amount of energy among the consumers?
6. Which get the least amount of energy?
Which is found at the base of the pyramid?
Which are found at the second layer?
Which at the third layer?
From the pyramid shown, which get the greatest amount of energy?
* Generalization
When the transfer of energy from the food becomes interlinked, the overlapping food chains
now show a kind of relationship of flow known as food web.
What happens to the amount of energy as it is transferred from one consumer to another?

3. How much energy do humans get when they eat higher order consumer?
D. ELABORATE
Construct your own food web using the following animals
Chicken, bird, rice plant, boy, lizard, snake
