The Flight of Birds

Print Resource
  • Resource Information

Abstract

In this activity, learners will realize the birds around them, be aware of their existence and environment. This activity can be applied in a group of pairs or individually at class or can be applied individually at home or anywhere in nature. Learners will observe the birds around them, realize their flight, peeping, their behaviours, colours, etc. and take their photos or count them. Teachers can get feedback from the learners and allow them to talk with their peers after the observation. The activity is advised to be done repetitive as it requires a long time and patience to wait for the birds.
