Food Chains and Food Webs
An explanation of the the components of food chains and food webs and how the energy flows through them. It is a bit more in-depth than required for fourth grade, but a great overall presentation.
Food Webs
A sorting activity of the various components of food webs from several different biomes.
eNature
eNature is the web's premier destination for information about the wild animals and plants of the United States. The site's core content of wildlife information about almost 6,000 individual species is the same data set used to create the printed Audubon Field Guides. All the data has been carefully reviewed and vetted by leading biologists, zoologists and other natural history specialists. Use this site to find out what sorts of animals live in a particular area.
