Making bird food was a lot of fun. We added lard to pine-cones before rolling them into the bird seed. We hung them outside of our classroom window. We are now waiting and hoping that the birds will stop by and feed off of them.
We also made pictures of birds in birch trees, and we added a "I Wonder Window" in our classroom. The students wrote notes on what they "wondered" about, such as "I wonder if birds will eat the food", "I wonder what kind of birds will come", "I wonder if birds will use our feeders", "I wonder how birds stay warm in a snow storm".
