Bee-lieve in the Magic of Bees


Spring is filled with flowers, new plants growing, and rain showers!  The flowers grow and transform into fruits and vegetables.  This transformation could not happen without the hard, behind-the-scenes work of bees.  Bees pollinate flowers to allow the fruit or vegetable to grow.  We could not have delicious produce without these fantastic insects.

Students created bee homes for Mason bees.  These are small, friendly bees.  Often, they are the first bees to appear in the spring.  Students saved a milk carton, added some dried flowers, and some cardboard tubes to their bee homes.  They will place them near a garden area, so that the bees can find some delicious flowers.  Home sweet home!
