What do plants and animals do to get energy?

• 0307.3.1 Label a diagram to illustrate the food
  relationships that exist between plant and
  animals
• 0307.3.2 Create a chart to show how plants and
  animals satisfy their energy requirement

Animals

• Plants and Animals have basic needs.
• Think about what you need to survive?
• What are your basic needs?
• Food, Water, and Shelter
• You are the same as animals.

Plants

• What does a plant need to grow at your house?
• Air, Sunlight, and Soil

Animals

• Animals satisfy their basic need for energy by
  eating.
• When we eat we get energy just like animals.
  Think about when your teacher picks you up from
  lunch.
• Do you have more energy after eating lunch? The
  food you ate gave you energy.
• Some animals eat plants to get energy and other
  animals eat animals to get energy.

Animals are grouped by what they eat.

• Animals are classified into groups by how they
  get energy. Animals get energy from eating.
• The animals that eat only plants to get energy
  are called herbivores.
• The animals that eat only other animals to get
  energy are called carnivores.
• The animals that eat plants and other animals to
  get energy are called omnivores.

Plant-eaters

• Animals that eat only plants to get energy are
  called herbivores. These animals get energy from
  eating plants.
• Some examples of herbivores are cows and camels.

7
Animal Eaters

• Some animals get energy by eating other animals.
  These animals are called carnivores.
• Some examples of animals that eat other animals
  are sharks, lions, and hawks.

Animals that eat Bothplants and animals

• There is a group of animals that eat both plants
  and animals. This group gets energy from eating
  both. These animals are called omnivores.
• Some examples of these are us (humans), bears,
  and gorillas.

Create a Chart

• You can create a chart of what animals eat.
  Energy travels through this chart.
• The grasshopper eats the grass and the mouse eats
  the grasshopper.

Create

• Can you create a chart of plants and animals that
  shows how energy travels?
