Consumer Activity

Dear students,

Now that we have discussed about herbivores, carnivores and omnivores, you will work together with assigned partners to discover more about these consumers. You will use this blog to create posts about the different types of consumers: herbivores, carnivores, and omnivores. Use the internet to research information about the type of consumer assigned to your group.

Before you start your blog, please watch this short YouTube video to refresh your memory about consumers.
