Bird Biology

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet
This Bird Biology lesson plan also includes:
  • Activity
  • Graphic & Image
  • Project
  • Worksheet
  • Join to access all included materials

Here you will find two good activities designed for young learners. In the first one, pupils explore the fact that all birds have feathers, and they discover what two uses those feathers have. After the discussion, the kids color in a good black line master embedded in the plan. Then, everyone builds a bird feeder and attempts to recognize all of the birds that come to feed. Directions are given in the plan, and there are photos as well. Terrific!
