Angry Birds Seasons Back to School Level 1-5 Walkthrough

Our strategy for Angry Birds Seasons Back to School level 1-5 is to send the first pink bird straight ahead into the left hand tower, tapping just as you reach it. This should cause the tower to collapse and for the pink bird’s bubbles to capture quite a few blocks. Ideally you won’t pop all pigs here, as you can get a higher score by launching a second pink bird at the right side tower. The score in the video is 57,720.

Debut: This level is the debut of the Pink Bird, whose real name is “Stella”. When activated manually or after a short delay once it has hit something, she places all nearby objects into bubbles in a small radius. Bubbles then float if not held down and pop a short while later, causing contents to fall back to the surface. You can read more about her here.

I loved this level!!! I had so much fun figuring out how to use the pink birdie. I love her ;-) I couldn’t wait to come post my strat but see it’s EXACTLY like the video..I mean my score is 57710 and the walkthrough’s is 57720, lol…
Here’s some tips that may help…Be sure to send the first bird right at the horizontal wooden plank closest to the bottom and tap her just before she makes contact because if you send her too low…it doesn’t work right and too high…then she doesn’t take enough debris with her. Also I have gotten a one birdie this way several times but the scores were always lower so you want to use the second bird to get the extra points…just like the walkthrough ;-)

@kathy, she is somewhat ‘touchy’. I have trouble getting her to pick up/move some things and have to repeat it. For this level just fling her over to the lower middle of the left structure and tap again. She might need to be touching a bit of wood and brick at the same time, but she will grab and lift eventually. Sometimes she just blows bubbles all over the structure and nothing happens except for the bubbles popping. Then I just reset and fling again. You will get it and then it will be high flying bubbles from there.

Essayez une stratégie Française !
visez la première petite pomme rouge. Avec le ricochet, et si vous êtes chanceux, toutes les cochons sont détruits. Pour améliorer le score, lancez sans attendre un second oiseau sur le mur restant.

Sorry by the way, french user i try to translate for you (without using tthe google translate, cos, still sucking, I find)

Try the douzbb style (with a french touch !)
aim at the first little red apple. If you’re lucky, by ricochet, you can destroy all the pigs with one bird. For a higher score, send quickly a second bird on the last wall. My score with this strat.

I did the reverse. I sent the first bird just over thebigday tower, activate the bird right when it hits the small tower. This will possibly kill one or two pigs. Then I bounced the second bird on the platform with the apple and activate it as it hit the tall tower. Have 61040

Used the same strategy. Thanks for posting @douzbb. I figured that red apple was put there for a reason. Activate the pink bird just before it touches the wood of the left stack. The far right pig is the challenge to get. Did the same with the second pink bird by activating it prior to hitting the structure. Fun level to play.

Got current top score with very similar strategy using 2 bird.

1) Try to hit the 2nd from the bottom stone block on first tower and activate your bird at the same time he contacts the wall. This will cause almost the entire wall to be knocked over.

2) With 2nd bird, try and hit near the bottom of the remaining tower and activate on impact. This will cause the entire wall to fall and kill any remaining pigs.

Takes a lot of luck to get a very high score.

63620 using this strategy in reverse. First bird low arc just clearing the first tower, activating on impact at the bottom of right side tower. 2nd bird straight ahead to bottom of left tower for the clear. Alternate first shot is a high arc coming down in the same spot at the base of the tower. I found the lower arc first shot to be easier and more repeatable.

Nice flinging, @moonsabre. I’ve been trying those shots for hours and only managed to get around 1k to add to my previous best at 60k+ before checking in at the nest. Were they supposed to be “pixel-perfect”? Bouncing on the nearest platform with an apple on top (thanks to @douzbb & @pointdexter5) did give +500 but doesn’t seemed to have significant impact on total. It also lack the angle to reach the top stone of the first tower (the one you mentioned above). Second tower is way easier to manipulate. Still stuck in this level so 1-6 to 1-20 should wait a little longer. Enlighten me, oh King of the Seasons… ;)

Ummm, this is awkward and misplaced but was it just me or did Stella (aka. our latest “star” pink bird) sounded like a female Japanese ninja? Curse me… :(

Rank: Debriefed with 1410 points
By BirdJo (@birdjo)Score: 65,280

Forgetting about bouncing off the nearest platform. I’m now focusing on doing more consistent shots with your strat. Managed to scrap out another 2k+ and at 63k+ now. Here comes the details :
1. Aim the first straight and slightly upward so there is an ever so small (and i mean a hair-thick) gap between the two sling ropes. You should hit the top little stone at the first tower. The bird HAS TO FALL right to the left of the wall, NOT BOUNCE AWAY (restart when happen) from it. Manually trigger the blow when the lowest stone (large horizontal one) is within the bubbles’ range. This should lift most of the first tower and killing at least two left-most pigs in the process. This is also an alternate, fairly repeatable solution for one-birder (but with less score).
2. Aim the second just a bit higher so the start of the previous tracking dots slightly appeared above the second bird’s aiming position. This will launch the bird to approximately lower to middle portion of the second tower. Trigger before or upon impact as you wish to lift as many pieces as possible to kill the last pig with helmet.

55k-62k happens quite often with this strat. Thanks to fully-imaginative @moonsabre… :D

Important note : As the first shot might happen to be a one-birder, you must be prepared for a scrambled second shot in order to scrap more points from the second tower. I would suggest you’re ready for launch as soon as you feel that your first shot was a “successful” one. This “one-birder, scrambled second shot” scenario tends to yield more points for me.

I only have one thing to add: For first bird, getting just the right amount of sling tension is key. Too hard, the bird bounce away, too soft not quite enough damage to the middle, in particular the right side pig. I would say about 80% of a full pull. For too long I thought a softer pull would do the trick, but couldn’t get past 62k. A firmer pull, and the slight bounce of the second bird finally got me to 65k. GL :)

@bonneypattycat, I know there’s only a few hours to go & you may not see this, but as you’re the Challenge Leader, it’s worth asking … After the 1st shot, approx what was your score? I’ve managed 38k or 39k with 1st shot & some 14k & a 15k to far right, unfortunately, never at the same time. I’m just wondering what to aim for as far as points after the 1st shot.

@justpast40, As all pigs were killed with the first bird, I was pretty busy getting the second bird out of the sling so didn’t notice the first bird score, but I am certain it was at least 40k. A good second bird usually yields at least another 20k when the debris falls to the right, but if you can get it to go left with the bounce, you can squeeze out quite a few more points.

@bonneypattycat, that’s exactly what I meant, over 68k was possible if I was getting 37-38k with 1st bird while leaving right side untouched & you are saying 20k with 2nd shot from debris only since piggies were destroyed on 1st shot. I couldn’t get anything close to that 20k with just the debris; my best was 15 something, never broke 16k with 2nd shot.

Correction to my post above. I’m embarrassed as I’m not illiterate. The “don’t” after ampersand & before touch should have read “didn’t.” It should have read “….. all piggies & didn’t touch ….”

Definately a slight bounce helps, I found it jostles the top of the tower a bit & makes it a bit easier for the bubble to lift up most of that front tower. I rarely got the helmet pig on the right with the 1st shot, he’s a tough one. A good score is 30k+.
2nd shot to the middle of the right tower, activating just as she comes into contact. Got lucky with a lot of destruction.
The pink bird takes a bit of getting used to but is fun!

Regarding the order of shots. The right tower on its own almost never yields more than 10k worth of debris (not counting a pig.) Doing that shot first would seem to make sense; deciding whether to reset based on score.
10,000 = keep going
HOWEVER – when one collapses the left tower first, some of the rubble lands on top of the right pig. Because you can pick it up with bubbles at the same time as the right tower, you touch it twice. This gives you a better chance of more than 10k on the right.
Two big problems when all three pigs pop with 1 bird –
1. This level starts counting QUICKLY if you pop all pigs. Getting another shot off is tough.
2. You don’t get to touch debris twice because without the right pig, it’s too low. You can’t get stuff on the ground AND enough of the right tower to equal more than the 10,000 value of the bird.
You have to decide in a split second what is more likely to give you a higher score. An unused bird or debris points that could range from 8-12k.
All of the above is why I’m still just under 60,000, lol!
Good luck with challenge, all. If anyone has a guaranteed way of getting big points on the right with the first bird, please share!

@Jaydee we are referring to the small stone block at the top left of the first tower. Stella should bounce slightly off that block which loosens the tower pieces and starts to fall down alongside the tower. In that split second activate her bubbles. Most of the tower pieces will be lifted then dropped to the right (middle) over the pigs.
