The Magic School Bus Inside a Beehive by Joanna Cole In the story, the students in Ms. Frizzle's class turned into bees and went inside a hive where they saw bees. The second graders read this story and went outside to pretend to be bees and collect pollen and nectar. We pretended the sticks we collected were nectar. In the classroom we drew pictures of bees to show what we learned from the story. We learned that when bees get pollen and nectar they spread the pollen from flower to flower. We learned about how bees get to the flowers. We did bee dances. We learned that when bees get pollen from flowers it gets all over them and they they have to comb themselves. We also made up some of our own insets. We hope you learn something about bees from our pictures and our words. by Ms. Wiggins' 2nd Grade
