Welcome to the sample lesson all about North American birds, where we kick things off with the American robin! This nod to our original unit is just the beginning—part 2 is packed with all-new species, including woodpeckers, loons, herons, roadrunners, and more. In Lesson 1, you’ll get a feel for how the whole unit flows, starting with everything you need to know about the robin: its appearance, habitat, diet, life cycle, and even its predators.
Our notebooking pages still have that simple, clean design, but now there’s even more art and guided notes to help you along. You’ll be mapping out where robins live in North America, learning fun proverbs like "the early bird gets the worm," comparing migration vs. immigration, and exploring all the amazing things feathers can do!
Whether you’re a bird lover or just someone curious about the ones you see outside your window, this unit will deepen your appreciation for some of the most common creatures around. So grab your binoculars and get ready to uncover the amazing world of birds!
