Honey Bees!

In Year R we have been learning about the wonderful Honey Bee! We have talked about how important they are to have in our world because without them we wouldn't have any fruit or vegetables! We have decided that we will try not to pick flowers anymore to help our little bee friends. We also decided that we would like to plant more flowers around the school. We bought special flowers that attract bees and planted them in our courtyard. Some of us used playdough to make bees or flowers for them. We tasted honey and wrote 'thank-you' letters to the bees. We worked together to make a new display for our classroom, making lots of flowers and buzzy bees! We did 'Honey Bee dances' outside in our maze. We pretended the maze was the hive and buzzed around the playground collecting nectar to bring back. We used scarves for our wings! For our home learning this week many of us chose to do some baking using honey as the main ingredient. Buzzzzzzzzzzzzz!
