The Food Chain: Producers, Consumers, and Decomposers Explained
In this science lesson for kids, students learn about the food chain and how energy moves through living things in an ecosystem. This video helps elementary students understand the roles of producers, consumers, and decomposers in a food chain. Kids learn how plants make their own food, how animals get energy by eating other organisms, and how decomposers help recycle nutrients back into the environment. The lesson explains these ideas in a clear, kid-friendly way that makes life science easier
