Students will begin by viewing an in-class\u00a0Powerpoint presentation on honeybees. After the slideshow,\u00a0half of the class will visit\u00a0our beehives, and half will play a bee game. Then we will switch. We will finish the program by tasting some of the honey our bees have made.<\/p>\n

Notes for teachers:<\/p>\n

If you could have the class divided in two for the program, that would help organization for the day. \"bees<\/a><\/p>\n

Students will need to bring long pants and\u00a0a long shirt or windbreaker to visit the hives. If it is a warm day, students should bring their long clothes separately, instead of wearing them on the bus. We will have gloves and veils for the students to wear as well. Girls should avoid wearing ankle socks for the trip.<\/p>\n

Depending on the\u00a0number of parents and availability of co-op students\u00a0for the day, you may be asked to supervise the bee game.<\/p>\n

If the bees have been productive, we may have honey to sell.<\/p>\n

We have only had one student stung during a bee program, and he was trying to\u00a0squish a bee. Students (and parents) should not fret about the danger involved.\u00a0Students are more likely to get stung by a wasp during recess.<\/p>\n

If it is raining on the day of your visit, we may need to do a pond study instead of bees.<\/p>\n
