Food Web Collapse Game

Grades 5-8.

This uniquely inventive and fast-moving strategy game teaches students about the structure and functions of food webs. Students control the initial number of animals at different levels of the food web, with the goal of avoiding local extinctions. It takes only 10-15 minutes to play one round. Students quickly learn to revise their strategy with each round played and as they better understand how food webs work. The game aligns with all state standards for teaching about food webs. Includes guide sheets, cards, stickers, and instructions. For up to 30 players.
