Bird Spotting Worksheet: Circle the Birds!

How to use this worksheet

Look at all the pictures on the page together, naming each one so your child knows what they're looking at before starting. Ask your child to think about what makes an animal a bird, such as having feathers, wings, or a beak, and use those features as clues while scanning the page. Have your child circle each picture that shows a bird, skipping over other animals or objects that don't fit. Once finished, move to the bird craft activity, using kitchen items like bread or vegetables to creatively construct a bird shape together.
