Dead bee experiment

 This morning  my class and I did a science experiment about bees .Firstly the teacher showed us a video explaining the different jobs and species of  bees there are , afterwards we each got handed dead bees though I had to share with my buddy Diana . The species of bees we got handed was a honey bee worker but it was too small to investigate so we ended up using another groups queen bumble bee . When the group first opened their queen bumble bee we all got a whiff of a very stinky smell it was as stinky as rotten meat but after a while the smell slowly started to fade. The bee had hairy legs and a fluffy body , soon after , Diana and me  each started writing down our observations on our worksheets  and we learnt where the thorax was located on the bees body.

  1. Hi Priscilla, I see you are on your way with blogging. I also see from your live traffic that you are getting hits from all over New Zealand and the WORLD. How exciting for you! I've also been learning about bees as my sister and nephew are looking into getting a hive. They live on a couple of acres in Pukekohe. Tell me more about what your learnt.... bees are so interesting!!
