Battle of the Beaks
Scholars will recognize and identify the importance of the design of a bird’s beak and the adaptations of the beak for survival. They will be given materials to create a beak and explain how the structure of their beak is similar to the selected birds. Scholars will also be discussing the similarities and differences between birds around the globe.
