Busy Beeing Us ALP
Preface(to parents/adults) This is my intended guide for children… Parental, or adult research with them will give the means, to a better understanding of bees… Being a part of sustaining Earth’s inhabitants.
1 Hello, I am Tregon I spoke about me, and my family of trees, and our help to all living things “This is Life.” Now, I want you to meet Begon, my good friend the honey bee, he will show, how helpful he can to living things, even us trees.
2 Hello, I am Begon and I am known as a western honey bee… I am one of many types of bees all over the world, and am also related to wasps and ants, yes it’s true… We come in many shapes, sizes and colours.
3 Not all bees are the same yes, we all make honey. With help from the flowers we visit, which gives us our foodand drink. The honey’s flavour and colour depends mainly on the flowers. Only us and our cousin the bumblebee, can make honey for all living things. This, is one of our jobs.
4 We are also known as (pollinators) (Let’s break that word down. It sounds like pol-li-nay-tors)… It means, by visiting flowers we can help plants to grow well in the wild, and in gardens… Even trees, plus farmers with their crops. This is our best job, but my cousin is better at this than me.
5In visiting trees, vegetables, and all the other plants needing our help. This makes food grow plentiful, for birds, animals, insects and people, of course. Our food is used to make tasty healthy foods for you also, and our beeswax is a helpful item.
6 Most bees live on their own, but me and my cousin live in (colonies.) (Let’s break this word down also, it sounds like “col-o-knees”). That means we live together. Just as you and your family do, with parents or adults looking after you… Our family is large so we have a Queen, she gives us chores to do as part of our job, to look after her, our home, family and getting food.
7 One thing you must be careful of. Should, you see us busy doing our jobs. Please do not try to stop us… This will make us unhappy, ok. Now, I have a job for you, questions on the next page needs answers… These will show, how helpful we can be to living things. (parental or adult’s help will be needed).
8 What is our food? What is nectar and pollen ? How do we get our food? How many things can we pollinate? Is pollination, good for living things? Why is our food, good for other living things? Who are the other living things? Flowers are needed but which ones? How do we help gardeners and farmers? What is honeycomb is it like beeswax?
9 This should help you to see, how helpful bees can be But, so we can keep helping the living things of Earth, I need your help… Please plant our favourite flowe to help our families, yours, mine as well as other living things.
Inhabitants who can! As an inhabitant of Earth, and despite our size, we facilitate Earth’s inhabitants in our honey and pollination process… Which, continues to sustain living things as is our legacy… Your legacy, as one of Earth’s inhabitants also, should be to teach future generations about that process… Which maintains our families, yours, mine, and other living things who have need of our natural support.
