14th January, 2018 activity of ‘Parivartan’- the Slum Education Programme, a CSR initiative of ITS, Ghaziabad was a class that included the discussions on the food chain, food web, types of animals as per their food habits, wild animals and a little bit of English Language. Volunteers of the day Apurva, Hitesh Sharma, Hrithik Yadav, Varun Arora, Vineet Moses Das, Shankar Kadariya and George Rudolf Henry started the class with the prayer and informed the children about the highlights of the day.

The first session of the day was on food chain and the food web. The children were told how the producer (e.g. grass) grows under the Sun and is eaten by the primary consumer (e.g. grasshopper). The primary consumer is then eaten by the secondary consumer (e.g. frog) which is further consumed by the tertiary consumer (e.g. python) and eventually the final consumer (e.g. hawk) consumes the tertiary consumer. At the end of this food chain the final consumer is decomposed by the decomposers. Similarly the children were also told about intermediate food links and the food web.
