Ideas for this theme

Robin, wren, blackbird—which names do you already know? These British garden birds make a good starting point for a birdwatching topic or a quiet spelling activity. Read through the list together, then try a word search or call the names in a game of bingo.

  • Look for familiar names first, then choose one unfamiliar bird to find in a local bird guide.
  • Compare blue tit, long-tailed tit and blackbird. Spaces and hyphens stay in the word list but disappear in the search grid.
