Making a birds nest

In year two this week we have been looking at different animal habitats and exploring what the word habitat means. We have spent time observing different habitats and micro-habitats in the school ground. We found plenty of mini beasts on our investigation.

Today we have had the opportunity to explore the habitat of a robin. We used our prior knowledge of bird habitats to make some sensible predictions about where a robin might or might not live. We went outside and built our own nests for a robin and explained why we used the different materials.

You can see our bird nests on seesaw.
