Science Readers: Food Webs

Food Webs is an informational text that explains how producers, consumers, and decomposers interact in a web that allows food energy to fuel life on earth.   A two-page activity invites students to explore how a change in one part of the food web affects the entire web. 

The book is divided into sections with some subsections.  Sentences vary in length and structure.  Illustrations, labeled photographs, and diagrams support the text.  Fact boxes add interest. Italics are used for emphasis. A table of contents, a glossary, and an index support the reader.

Glossary words are bold faced throughout the text.
