Join BFREE in the great world-wide celebration of migratory birds during the entire month of March!
We encourage celebratory events throughout the month of March such as educational presentations, cleanups, and other habitat restorations as well as bird walks, and creative art activities.
Classroom Activity Ideas:
- Host or join a trash clean up, this can be done around your school, in your community or along the beach! Bonus challenge, have class competitions to collect the most trash or create an art project with the plastic collected.
- Download the bird count and bring your class outside to record data from around your schoolyard.
- Have a school-wide plastic-free challenge week. Challenge your students to go a full week without using any single-use plastic at school!
- Host a movie party, watch Wing of Hope, Yochi, or Birds of Belize to get to know more about the incredible birds in our country.
- Share Migratory Bird Day in Belize on social media! Share the Facebook banner or post on Instagram and tag @bfreebz so we can see your activities!
