Standard: Show Content Tip
2b Students know producers and consumers (herbivores, carnivores, omnivores, and decomposers) are related in food chains and food webs and may compete with each other for resources in an ecosystem.
Holistic Rating: Limited coverage of this standard.
| Investigation 4 in the "Environments" module and pages 27-35, 38-41 and 43-46 in "Science Stories" provide limited coverage of this standard. |
Aspects that help student learning:
Pages 38-41 focus on the first part of the standard. The illustration on page 41 shows that decomposers act at all levels of food chains and food webs.
Aspects that do not help student learning:
Text has limited or no coverage of competition for resources.
Teacher's Edition that we used cited these pages as addressing this standard, but we did not find a significant correlation:
"Science Stories" page 42.
