Place several bird feeders in a safe area outside a classroom window. Provide binoculars and encourage the children to watch the birds come and go. Provide paper and colored pencils so the children can maintain bird journals. Ask questions to spark curiosity such as, “How many birds do you think will come to eat?” or “Where do you think the birds go after they eat?”
