Bee, Bee Bumble Bee Two weeks ago we watched a YouTube video on bees. The children

were interested in how the bees all have jobs to do and how they

work together to produce honey. Mrs Grinberg’s mother Brenda

came in to share her knowledge on bees. Brenda is a beekeeper and

produces honey and other products. It was amazing to hear how

much information the children could recall from the video we

watched earlier.

7th September 2017

Elsie There’s only one Queen bee.

Sophia Bees vomit the honey out to each

other. Then to another and another.

Xander The bees show the other bees where

to get the nectar. They do a dance so

they know where to go. The faster

they wriggle the longer away it is.

Liam The bees flutter their wings really

fast. That’s what makes the buzzing

sound.

Noah We got lollypops.

Outcome 2: Children are
