Extra Credit: Food Web & Energy Pyramid 
Student will create a food web consisting of animals found in a specific biome that they choose. Label the Producers, Primary Consumers, Secondary Consumers, and Tertiary Consumers. Identify the type of consumer. Draw arrows showing direction of energy flow: prey-predator. Create a food chain and make an energy pyramid with the same organisms. Label the trophic levels. Show the amount of the sun’s energy at each trophic level. (Include at least 4 trophic levels)
