Students learn the geographical location, on the wall map, of the birds they are studying.
The map should be displayed throughout the duration of the project for the students to examine. Students will print out and share with the class the information, including climate and other interesting observations about the area. Students will model clay birds with regular soft clay. Students will create their own bird nests out of brown paper bags, twigs, and grass. The illustrations in the book compliment the text and are easy to identify and understand.
