Food Web Simulation Activity| Ecosystem Disruptions| Energy Flow & Interactions
Bring ecosystems to life with this hands-on, interactive food web activity! Students build their own food web using species cards, then test how environmental changes impact ecosystem stability through a dynamic simulation. In this activity, students don’t just learn about food webs — they experience how ecosystems respond to disruption. By applying real-world scenarios like disease, habitat loss, and invasive species, students analyze how changes ripple through an interconnected system. What St
