This booklet gives a class a finished bee unit, so a teacher spends no extra time researching hive life before the lesson. Students meet the parts of a bee and step inside a working hive, then find out exactly what a colony produces and why. A section unpacks the waggle dance as a real form of communication between bees, before a closing part names the dangers bee populations face right now. A free companion video from Brenda Hayles accompanies every one of the six sections. Color hive photos run alongside a labeled bee body diagram across all 21 pages, and the glossary at the back covers pollination and colony. NGSS codes 2-LS2-2, 3-LS1-1, 3-LS2-1, 3-LS4-4 and 4-LS1-2 are covered.
Inside:
- Six sections, from bee anatomy to bees in danger
- A linked video for every section
- Color hive photos beside a labeled bee diagram
- A glossary covering pollination and colony
