Instructions
Warm-Up and Lesson
Begin the class by posing the following questions:
What is migration?
There are a lot of risks associated with migrating: energy use, predation, weather. What are the upsides?
Can you think of any animals that migrate?
Students can work in teams to answer the questions, then have them share their answers (right or wrong) with the class.
Hand out the lesson, Bird Migration Lesson For Kids, and have students prepare a sheet for note taking.
Suggestions for the note sheet: Divide the paper into three parts, 'What is Migration,' 'Food' and 'Babies.'
Introduce the topic of bird migration with some fun facts:
The arctic tern flies nearly 50,000 miles each year. (Show the image of an arctic tern.)
Around 40% of bird species migrate.
The great snipe can travel at speeds of 60 mph. (Show the image of the great snipe.)
7 million birds die each year by hitting radio/TV towers.
There are birds that migrate that don't fly. (Show the penguin image.)
Begin reading the text lesson as a class, and stop periodically so that students can fill in each section of their notes. Students can use the crayons and markers to draw an image to go with each section in order to personalize their notes.
