Model
Ask children: What do you see in this picture? (a bird sitting on a tree). How do you know this animal is a bird? (it has wings, a beak, feathers, etc.) Ask children: How do birds look different from other animals? (They have wings, feathers, and two legs. Some birds can fly.) Proceed to the next slide. Say: These two different kinds of birds may look different, but they both belong to the same group of animals. How are the places that these birds live different? (A pond is full of water and in nature. A farm is taken care of by people)
Apply
Play the games that follow. Have them discuss with their partner the different topics that appear during the Talk About It feature. After the first game, ask children to discuss how they have seen birds behave in nature. After the second game, have children try to name the bird in each picture and help them learn more about the birds they are interested in.
