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.
