8 questions with a Spring Meadow theme plus a full answer key. Perfect for Grade 4 Science.
⬇ Download WorksheetStudents will identify producers, consumers, and decomposers and trace energy flow through a spring meadow food chain.
Before starting, bring in a photo of a real spring meadow. Ask students to spot which organisms from Zoe's notebook — clover, grasshopper, robin, fox — they can find. This anchors Q3's food chain sequencing in a real visual.
- Zoe steps into the spring meadow. She spots clover, grasshoppers, and robins. Which organism is the producer? Circle one: clover / grasshopper / robin. A producer makes its own food using sunlight.
- Zoe writes in her meadow notebook. She labels each organism. A grasshopper eats clover. What do we call an organism that eats plants? Fill in the blank: A grasshopper is a ___________.
