Summary

Sure, students might know the difference between a producer and a consumer… but have they considered how they feel about each other? What, in a producer’s opinion, are the pros and cons of a consumer?

  1. Students will gather information about producers and consumers.
  2. Then they analyze that information and write down the positive and negative contributions of producers and consumers to an ecosystem.
  3. Students create a script in which a producer and a consumer have an honest talk about what they appreciate about each other but also what they other could improve.
  4. Finally, students add in the decomposers! They'll research decomposers, consider their positive and negative contributions, and then add them to the script.
