A few weeks ago Room 17 got a Science Box. It was called "What's the buzz?". We learnt all about bees. In this box there were many different experiments. For one of them we were learning about how the vibrations from a bee helps them to collect pollen. We used a balloon, cup and tuning fork.. we also had "pollen" aka flour.
It wasn't just exciting it was very fun as well!
We used a magnifying glass and tweezers to VERY carefully observe them. There were three different types of bees. The queen bee, the male (drone) bee and the worker bee. We were amazed by how different they were! It was freakishly amazing!
We learnt about the lifespan of a bee also.
We would rate this pretty highly as we learnt so much about these wonderful creatures.
