In August Zippy and JD Boy each made their first lapbook. They each did one on birds.  We got this lapbook from In the Hands of a Child<\/a>.<\/p>\n

They also worked on learning about birds by completing a Feathered Friends Honor<\/a> from the Adventurer Club<\/a>. One of the things they did for that honor was to memorize the calls of ten different birds: Great Horned Owl<\/a>, American Robin<\/a>, Mourning Dove<\/a>, Black-capped Chickadee<\/a>, Herring Gull<\/a>, Ringed-billed Gull<\/a>, American Crow<\/a>, Common Raven<\/a>, California Quail<\/a>, Mallard<\/a> and Steller’s Jay<\/a>. (Oh, that makes eleven.) We learned these sounds at enature.com<\/a> and from listening to birds around our house.<\/p>\n

This first set of pictures is from my five-year-old’s Bird lapbook. We cut the photos out of Wild Animal Baby<\/a> magazines for his front and back covers.<\/p>\n

Zippy also started a life bird list in April. Below is her bird list as of today (10\/29\/08). She is also working on completing the Bird Honor<\/a> from Pathfinders<\/a>.<\/p>\n
