2027 Homeschool Series: Ocean Investigator, ages 9–12

February Week 3: Shorebirds

Students will survey the local bird species around Avery Point, studying the unique beaks, wings, and behaviors that help them survive in a coastal habitat. Then, they’ll turn nature into technology by engineering model airplanes inspired by bird body shapes, testing their designs to see which flies the farthest.

Learning Outcome: Use tools to identify local bird species, learn about adaptations of different bird species, and how body shapes help them to thrive in their environment.
