About This Lesson
The arctic tern (Sterna paradisaea) makes an incredible migration each year. These small birds travel distances of more than 50,000 miles, from pole to pole, crossing through temperate and tropical regions along the way. Scientist Carsten Egevang used geolocator tags to track some of these terns, and he shares their story with us in this Google Earth Tour video.
In this activity you will find:
- Google Earth Tour narrated video.
- Comprehension questions.
- Discussion questions.
