Be a hummingbird — activity guides
The David Suzuki Foundation, in partnership with the Vancouver Opera and the Pacific Opera Victoria, is committed to helping children recognize their agency and to inspire them to help protect the natural world.
Inspired by the simple message in the opera, The Flight of the Hummingbird, to “do what you can”, teachers can answer the opera’s clear call to action with activities designed to help students become advocates, improve existing programs or create solutions to problems they see in their schools, homes and communities.
By signing up to receive the activity guides listed below, your students can “be a hummingbird” and proudly identify how their efforts contribute to a healthier planet.
In a world of more than seven billion people, each of us is a drop in the bucket. But with enough drops, we can fill any bucket.
