Pupils needing extra support

Could make a simple list of plants and plant parts for a herbivore recipe; could be given adult support when making their bird feeders.

Pupils working at greater depth

Should use original ideas for plants and animals in their recipes, as opposed to using the word banks; should draw on their own life experiences to describe what birds eat (e.g. feeding ducks at a pond or seeing birds feed on seeds in the garden); could explain how birds use their unique body parts when feeding (e.g. eagles and hawks use their sharp talons to catch mice and reptiles, parrots have large, strong beaks to crack open nuts and crows and robins have small, sharp beaks helping them peck at plant parts or small insects).
