Bee's Birds

Last week we did a trial run of letting the kids teach a science subject.  It was such a hit we are going to continue.  The conditions are that they must study the subject out.  For the younger kids that includes reading a book and reading several other sources.  For the older kids this can include a deeper look into a subject.  I have allowed each child a day or two to present their lesson along with projects or experiments that go along with it.

Monday we are starting with our youngest.  She will need lots of assistance in her lesson so we will link some of the information that we find here.  After reading a book about birds she was so excited to teach the fam everything the learned.

This is a fun sight that allows you to identify birds.  It also has a lot of wonderful ideas for getting out and star identifying birds in your area.  It also has life history, video and bird calls.
