Using the pictures that you provide for the students have them
determine the silhouettes of birds in flight.
|
 |
The students can project the silhouettes from your pictures of the
birds onto a wall with an opaque projector and trace the projection onto
construction paper.
|
 |
After tracing the projection of the bird in flight onto the
construction paper, the students should cut out large-scale silhouettes
of the birds in flight. (The students can use tracing paper to draw the
shape of flight from the pictures you provide onto the construction paper
as well.)
|

 |
The silhouettes can then be displayed from the ceiling on fishing
wire. The top part of the fishing wire can be secured to the ceiling
with a couple of pieces of electrician's tape.
|
 |
Each silhouette should be labeled. You may want the students to group
the silhouettes by families to show the similarities.
