We have had a super day learning all about birds. We took to the school fields and outdoor classroom to make our own binoculars and then quietly waited to see which birds flew by. It was really nice to sit and hear the birds singing.
We learnt about where a bird would build it’s nest and the type of natural materials they use. We looked around and gathered leaves, sticks, feathers and mud to create our own. Then we talked about how birds lay eggs of different sizes, shape and colour. Using marbling inks we made our own eggs. We got very messy, but had lots of fun. We also made bird feeders, which we are going to hang in the outdoor area. We hope we will see lots of birds coming to visit.
