Suggestions for activities to do after The Birds Workshop:

Social and natural sciences space:

  • Make the cards to do at school that are included in The Birds workbook.
  • Make murals with the photos of animals collected, grouping them by different criteria: the element in which they live, type of movement, type of food, etc.
  • Make a map of the nidification area of the heron.
  • Make the students prepare "lectures", individually or in groups, to present to their classmates.
  • Write and/or represent stories about the birds collected or invented by the students, which contain information learned in the activity.
  • Make a book or album about birds that contains everything learned.
  • Construct an incubator to incubate eggs that have been fecundated and monitor them.
  • Make and hang bird feeders and nest-boxes to attract birds to the schoolyard.

Evaluation of learning obtained:

  • When looking at photographs of birds, students must determine the element in which it moves and what it eats.
  • Establish relationships between human tools and the shapes/functions of beaks. Example: parrot beak and nutcrackers.
