Year 2 Learn about the Parts of a Bee

 First, we revisited our learning about the bee life cycle. Then we went on a walk to check out how our bees are doing. As it is winter, the bees are not as active at the moment. 

Next, we walked around to see if there were flowers on our trees for our bees. We found some, but not enough. Flowers are very important for our bees.

Do you know that without the bees, 80% of our fruit and vegetables would not exist?

We had a taste of the mandarins from Ms Everitt's tree...

Mackenzi: Ï didn't have a pip in mine!"

Eva: "I only had one pip."

Cern: "It is sooooooo sweet."

Greyson: "It tasted a bit sour, but inside it was sweet."

Daniel: The mandarin smelled really good."

Zara: "The mandarin smelled a little bit sour."

Richie: "I had 2 pips in my Mandarin, and I swallowed them both!"

Thank you Bees, for the Mandarins!
