Abstract | After the summer nesting period, broad winged hawks are known for migrating nearly 10,000 kilometers, (6,200 miles) each fall from their breeding grounds in North America to tropical biomes in South America, where they spend the winter. The International Union for Conservation of Nature has labeled broad-winged hawks as a species of "least concern," though they could still face threats in years to come. Studying these birds while they are abundant in nature is the best way to secure their future on the planet. This article describes a lesson in which students apply real-world data within eco-system dynamics as they explore the migratory patterns of these birds of prey who cut across geographical borders. The lesson encourages students to learn about new parts of the world, increases students' cultural awareness and aligns with the "Next Generation Science Standards". (ERIC). |
