Teacher Notes

  • Pupils could write stories based on the bird's journey of migration and the problems it comes across.
  • Encourage the pupils to identify the problems with bird migration and list all of the ways they could help. Pupils could then turn these ideas into a class assembly on conserving wildlife.
  • A school trip to the beach could be consolidated by watching this clip, sharing everyone's role in keeping British beaches clean and protecting seabirds.

This clip is relevant for teaching Science at KS1 in England and Wales, Foundation and KS1 in Northern Ireland, and early level and first level in Scotland.
