Abstract

The following material has been designed as a curriculum module to familiarize students with the geographic concepts associated with the migration of North American birds. These concepts include breeding territories, orientation, weather factors, mapping, and flyways. This module would be most suitable for grades 4 to 8. The subject matter is inherently interdisciplinary in nature, encompassing concepts from geography, the natural sciences, and environmental studies, and should help meet “teaching across the curriculum” requirements. It can also be adapted to extra-curricular offerings, such as special after-school classes or courses taught by organizations such as the Audubon Society. Teachers may modify the material to match the classroom time they have available.
