It is time for another
activity. This activity is not one that would be found out at OEL
but is for use here on the Internet. At camp, we vary our teaching
styles. Sometimes we have lecture. Sometimes we have
exploratory. We usually have a bit of both and a few other styles
mixed in there. This activity is an exploratory. Using your
knowledge of the Internet, perform a search using several search engines
to learn all you can about birds. In your searching, try to find
out 1)
what birds eat,
2) what birds are most common to your home
town, 3)
how often do they have young, and
4) how long do most
birds live. As you search for these, you will also hopefully find
many other interesting things.
To
do this search, you can use your favorite search engines or listed below,
you will find several suggested search engines. If you click on
these links, a new browser window will open so that you do not have to
worry about getting back to this site -- just close that new window when
you are done and you will come back to this one. If you use your own
search engine, make sure that you can get back here when you are complete.
