Bees


In this project, youth engage in exploring the outdoor world by learning names and classifications of Bees. Youth will understand the essentials of studying nature: stop, observe, discover, how to correlate findings and more.

Youth will learn:

  • About bees and how to care for them.
  • About the social life of bees.
  • How bees pollinate crops and increase the yield of many fruit and seed crops.
  • About insects, animals and plants which relate to beekeeping.
  • How to produce, package and market honey.
  • The honey-producing plants in your area.
