Ecosystems - Producers, Consumers and Decomposers

Today we are learning about the flow of energy through an ecosystem.

An ecosystem is an area that contains all the living and non-living things needed to provide food, water, light and shelter so that the plants and animals can live.

Watch the following videos to find examples of
the main kinds of living things:

1. Producers (make food by absorbing energy from the sun)
2. Herbivores (consumers who eat parts of plants)
3. Omnivores (consumers who eat plants and animals)
4. Carnivores (consumers who eat only animals)
5. Decomposers (consumers who eat dead plants and animals)
