Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

Bees are the world’s busiest pollinators, with a really big job to do. Honey bees pollinate more than 100 types of crops in the U.S., help maintain the diversity of plant life and ultimately, play a crucial role in our ecosystem.Unfortunately, it’s getting tougher for honey bees to survive.Often my students ask me: But why are bees so important? The simplest answer is that bees pollinate food crops.

Our class would like to “Bee a Mate to Pollinators” because we need bees and bees need us.

With this resources and material we could carry out an amazing project about bees in our classroom .

We could journey into the incredible world of honey bees with games, facts, activities and more! Get a sweet taste of honey bees and understand why they're so important and crucial for our planet.
