US Grade 2 - 5
Note: This is a flexible class. There are no live classes, however there are many opportunities to interact with me and other learners. I will monitor messages and respond if there are any questions. I will post videos weekly on Sunday by 9 PM CT. Students are able to leave videos in the classroom. If they need help learning how to do that, I can assist. Students can respond to other students posted videos or comments. Growing up, I was around a lot of birds, however I really did not know...
Students will learn how to identify birds more effectively, make field notes, and draw their observations. Students will develop skills at keeping a bird journal, which can be used for other subjects.
I have been an avid birder for years, and enjoy taking pictures of nature, especially birds. I enjoy studying the birds and learning more about them. I am a certified teacher, with an endorsement in Language Arts, I am a retired school counselor with master's degree in counseling, and I am also certified in ELED, and SPED K-12. I have a lot of experience working with students with many different abilities, learning challenges, and welcome all students.
Homework Offered
Students will enter bird sightings in their bird journal when they see them. They are encouraged to enter a couple each week, as they work on learning how to make field notes and describe the bird. Students will have the opportunity to practice what the lesson of the week is as they journal.0 - 1 hours per week outside of class

Grades Offered
I will put a bird journal in the classroom. There are many that are available online, if they prefer one of those, that is an option. Please make sure it has space for the information we will be putting in the journal, and adequate space to draw. It is suggested that students also have a bird guide to reference, such as Sibley Birds, Peterson Field Guide, or similar. There are several websites that are good for students to use to learn about birds. Parents will be given a spreadsheet with bird links. Parents can help students decide which websites they would like to use. They will need a pencils, colored pencils, a way to sharpen the pencils/colored pencils when out observing and entering in their journal, a pencil pouch/bag to keep supplies in. They may want something to sit on if sitting on the ground observing and entering information in their journal.
If learners are going to watch birds it is important to make sure they are in a safe area and that if needed, they are supervised.
