About this event
Nature Calgary presents Backyard Bird Sounds: Come hoot, chirp, cheep, and drum with us (Grades 3-9)
Birds are noisy! Let’s get noisy with them! Students will learn to describe bird sounds bird sounds using words, phrases, pictures, and sounds. Each student will have the chance to get noisy and make the hoots, honks, chirps, cheeps, squawks, quacks, and drums using their lung power, whistles, and found objects. We’ll also play a few games to get students ready to get outside and know who’s making all those wonderful sounds and why!
By then end of the session, students will…
• be able to describe and remember bird sounds
• experience the joy of making bird sounds themselves
• learn why birds make different sounds
• learn about some free apps that will help them identify birds sounds in the wild
