Where do humans fall on the food chain? Scholars read about the Industrial Food Chain in The Omnivore’s Dilemma sections. They use word catchers to record unfamiliar words as they read and place sticky notes in the margins to annotate the paragraphs. Learners then answer text-dependent questions and discuss the gist of the text with a partner.
