Positives

• The murals are beautifully designed and represent an array of artistic styles; each student will find something that they like. 
• The bird song recordings really bring the artwork to life.
  

Additional Prerequisites

• Students should have familiarity with climate change and how it can impact natural habitats. 

Differentiation

• This resource would work well in a science class discussing climate change and ecology or in an art class working on murals or activism through art.
• Younger students will enjoy seeing the artwork, listening to the bird songs, and learning about the birds presented in the murals. Have them find a bird to draw on their own.
• Advanced students could write a paper or give a presentation about how climate change is affecting birds in their local area, providing information from the mural and the additional information provided by clicking on each bird species.
  
• This resource lends itself well to a jigsaw activity, where students each choose a mural and species, learn about it, and present their findings to a partner or the class. 
• Students can use Google street view to see a mural of their choice as it is in the neighborhood.
• As an extension, have students learn about a bird species and create their own mural or artwork.
