Science 1- Bees

We will be doing  quick Science based projects each week or two. Just following our interests and using mostly any internet based resources and books we have at home or can be borrowed easily form the library

The first one is bees and we covered this today.
We read aloud and watched these interesting youtube sessions as well as listen to the cute song at the end.
