All About Birds

After Christmas the Year R children voted to learn about birds,

Our inspiration in our Art lessons will be based on The Lost Words,

We will participate in the Big Schools’ Birdwatch in the school grounds,

And recognise different bird species by their spectacular sounds,

We will design winter bird feeders using recycled everyday materials,

Including pine cones, plastic bottles and even breakfast cereals!

We will read the story of Hoot Owl, the master of disguise,

And use our camouflage super powers to become winter wildlife spies,

We will explore Owl Babies and learn about different bird nests,

From the giant White-Tailed Eagle to the little Robin redbreast,

Our literacy learning will focus on Grandma Bird and Puffin Peter,

By the end of our topic we will become expert British bird twitchers,

Shh! We Have A Plan. Let’s invite pre-school to our opera end goal,

To share the modern classic and perform different musical roles.
