Birds: April Unit Study

This month we’re studying birds. At our house, ducks are using our backyard as a crosswalk every afternoon and the kids are enjoying their new feathered friends.

A few years ago we studied birds for an entire year, using Apologia’s Flying Creatures of the Fifth Day: Exploring Creation with Zoology 1 curriculum. I highly recommend it.

If you are headed to the library, download this sheet with all the recommended reading.

You can view the snack, craft, and printables for the bird unit here.
