Matata Fernbird {Make & Do Activity Pack}

Description

It’s time for this shy and secretive bird to shine – come and learn more about our native Mātātā/Fernbird!

This pack has been assembled to celebrate this amazingly unique native bird. If you’re lucky enough to be teaching or learning in a whanau group/syndicate team/pod or hub which bears its name, then you’re in for a treat.

This Mātātā ‘make & do’ pack includes:

• A mini ‘one-cut-book’ which contains little Mātātā related facts and research tasks
• A ‘keywords & colouring’ sheet containing a list of keywords to research, small colouring sheet, and 6 mini research challenges **This page cleverly folds to reveal the Mātātā’s full name when the sheet is complete.
• A template for a Mātātā paper hand puppet for the kids to colour, assemble and have fun with!
• A Fernbird fact file containing basic information about its common names, the threats it’s facing and special features.
• An ‘I wonder’ task card containing 3 Mātātā themed questions designed to prompt some deeper thinking about this unique bird and its habits.
• A coloured Mātātā picture card
• *All of the foldable activities come with a supporting photograph sequence so you can see how the activities are assembled and used
