Literacy
Being a Beekeeper is a very important job. Beekeepers take care of colonies if bees that had once been killed through disease and pests. They provide weatherproof boxes for homes, they act as insect doctors and check that the Queen is strong and new bees are growing. On your sheet draw and label the equipment you would need to be a beekeeper. Look at the pages below to remind you.
Maths
Bees build their hives out of tiny cells shaped like hexagons (with six sides). This shape lets adult bees fit a huge number of cells into the hive, holding thousands of new bee eggs. Look around your house can you see anything that is a hexagon shape. Look at the worksheet below which explains what you have to do.
UtW/PD/EAD/PSED
