Watershed On Wheels
Program Levels:
Course Types:
Watershed on Wheels (WOW) is now offering e-learning resources for teachers, linked to our in-class WOW presentations. These are free digital resources teachers can use with students to explore a topic within the WOW program suite.
The best way to teach your class about food chains is to immerse them in one! In an exciting and active simulation game, students are designated as a specific animal within an Ontario food chain and attempt to survive against a number of different challenges that animals actually face.
Through this hands-on experience, students explore predator-prey relationships, energy pyramids, producers, consumers, decomposers and food chains. Ideal for Grades 4 and 7.
Note: This program requires a large outdoor area such as a soccer field or school yard.
Preparation:
It’s helpful if students have name tags.
Availability:
All year.
