Are you taking part in the RSPB Big Garden Bird Watch from 27th – 29th January?
Are you taking part in the RSPB Big Garden Bird Watch from 27th – 29th January? Academy9 has been raising awareness and playing our part with a visit to Pitlochry Primary School for our Early Birds Event.
We worked with the P1-2s to explore:
- Birds that are native to Scotland, helping them feel confident in their Bird Watching activities!
- Food chains and how each plant or animal plays an important role.
- Rare species, looking at how changes in a food chain can lead species to become endangered.
The workshop finished on a playground scavenger hunt to find as many hidden bird cards as they could, to then place how common or rare they are in Scotland on a pyramid.
Pupils were then left with instructions for making their own bird feeder so they can attract some of the birds they’ve been learning about!
You can find out more about our other Academy9 events here.
