Bees in the Curriculum

Bees in the Curriculum

Everybody seems to care about bees these days but how much do we really know and understand?

Written for Key Stages 1 and 2, this teachers pack is a neat introduction to Bees and Minibeasts, Bee Products, The Beekeeper and Pollination.

The online pdf resources pack has three sections containing many usable worksheets. The headings are;

  • Understanding the world,
  • Science,
  • Science and the environment. 

We have used scientific section headings for usability. This doesn’t mean a waggle dance could not be a PE lesson, or label design couldn’t become an art class!

This is a free resource and open to all, especially for schools.

If you would still like to become a member of the BBKA, please get in touch with your local branch/ association to become a schools member.

Please click on one of the topics below to get started!

A huge thank you to our Bees in the Curriculum sponsor, National Bee Supplies
