Chasing the Curlew’s call was created by UCC as part of the TRANSLATE Project and follows Lou and her grandfather as they search for the disappearing Curlew near their home in County Kerry. The story interconnects generations of Lou’s family with generations of the curlew: a bird that has been woven into Ireland’s cultural memory for many years. The story explores how shifts in weather patterns are impacting the bird’s survival, urging readers to care about climate change and feel inspired to help. Below, you will find the full set of resources, including the graphic novel, the accompanying animation and and teacher packs. These packs contain lesson plans and short surveys, which play an important role in helping us understand how engaging and effective the materials are in the classroom.
