A poster explaining the roles of the Sun, producers, consumers, and decomposers in the food chain.

There are three main groups to consider when looking at the circle of life in an ecosystem – producers, consumers, and decomposers. They are all interrelated in food chains and food webs and are dependent on one another for survival.

Use this resource in your classroom to teach about producers, consumers, and decomposers, and how they interact with one another in the ecosystem.

There are two print options available for this poster:

Print on tabloid paper to display in your classroom.
Print on letter-size paper and have the students glue it into their science journal for future reference.
