"The Beeman" by Laurie Krebs is an excellent way to introduce students to honeybees. The book describes how beekeepers care for their bees, the different kinds of bees (drone, queen, worker) as well as how bees help us pollinate. Also, the story covers how bees make honey for us to enjoy!
This educator guide accompanies the 2014 Book of the Year, "The Beeman." The educator guide is for grades K-2 and has 6 activities that range from topics such as language arts, math and science. It helps students understand bees and how they help in the pollination process.
The Bee Ag Mag is a great way to incorporate agriculture into a science or literature classroom. This 100% standards aligned nonfiction text covers topics such as: How is honey made? Who is a beekeeper? How do farmers use bees? What is the life cycle of a bee and more!
For the first time ever the Foundation has translated an Ag Mag into Spanish. This resource includes all of the topics in the English version of the Ag Mag.
