Same day after lunch the children and I painted a tree using recycled cardboard paper. We learnt how to

make the brown colour by mixing primary colours together. Once it was dry, we labeled the different

parts of the tree before hanging it up on our wall. Here we had to ‘problem-solve’ as the staple gun that

we used, wasn’t strong enough to hold the cardboard. T. Fatima suggested that we cut holes and use

string and we agreed with her and it worked.

On our last day of investigation we made birds using different color card paper and placed them on our

tree. After that we printed a time-line of bird life and together we placed them in order. We wrote

about each picture. We then went to uncle Dr Alayan office o show him our poster and to tell him all

about what we had learnt about birds. Isa,Bilal, Arrsalan were very confident but the girls felt rather shy

to speak and the toddlers were more interested in what was around uncle ’s office. Uncle Alayan then

gave us some food and took us outside to feed birds.

We concluded our investigation by going on a trip to the museum. At the museum the children loved

looking at the different mummified birds. Masha-allah some children were very observant and

remembered the birds that we have looked up on the computer.
