Apply for Our ‘The Natural History of Birds’

Open to: Grades 6-12 Teachers
Opportunity at a Glance: More than 240 species of birds breed within New York State, and about 450 spend part of the year here.  Some of them fly all the way from South America to Canada and back again. Why do some bird species migrate?  How are birds adapted to live in different habitats?  Why do scientists consider birds to be living dinosaurs? How are they affected by climate change and urbanization? How does our morning coffee affect the diversity of birds?

Join Museum educators for a workshop to investigate questions about the evolution, ecology, and diversity of birds.  Participants will visit several iconic halls and even take a birding walk in Central Park.
Key dates:  Wednesday April 8 from 9:00a.m. – 3:00p.m.
Location: American Museum of Natural History – 200 Central Park West, New York, NY 10024
