Create a Food Chain, K-2 Educators know that young children better visualize a concept after experiencing it with all their senses. When trying to teach them about the simple food chain, just eating a variety of foods and discussing their origin is not enough. Milk carton blocks are easy to assemble and your child can manipulate them to experiment with the pyramid that is created in an actual food chain. Take ten clean, empty milk cartons (quart or half-gallon size is best) and measure one e ...

Wetlands are one of the most threatened natural resources on earth. Next to tropical rain forests and coral reefs, wetlands are the most rapidly vanishing habitat. And unfortunately, because wetlands don’t have the advantage of being beautiful or colorful by traditional standards, or support high-profile species, they don’t receive nearly the media attention as the other two habitats. And yet the ecological and economical importance of wetlands is incredible. California has lost 91% of its h ...
