My Take
I think this would be a great product to teach about animals and bird with 3rd and 4th grade. It lets students live the life of a bird through migration patterns, it includes a total experience with landing and refueling,and it has different levels with different experiences
How I Use It
I think this product would be great to help teach birds to 3rd and 4th grades. It is engaging, it shows challenges birds have in migration, and it includes a total bird experience including challenges in landing. The game could be a little difficult for the age group in places, but overall its a good experience
