Year Two Yummy Honey

 Today Year Two continued their close look at honey bees. 

We compared and contrasted the bee life cycle to other animals we know that go through metamorphosis. Can your tamariki explain the bee life cycle?

Next we acted out the amazing way bees make honey using nectar from flowers, before trying some honey from our very own school bees. YUM! 

Alice "It looks runny"

Eather "Yellow like a sunflower"

Everyone "MMMMMMMMMMMMM"

Ibaad "Sweet like chocolate"

Thea "Can i have another one?"

Did you know you can buy Waka honey at the school office? 

Afterwards we recorded what we had learnt in diagrams and numbered steps in our special Bee Books. 

Well done Year Two! Next time we are going to learn about why we need bees most in the world... POLLINATION
