A little more honeybee fun this morning. I read a story about how busy a bee can be while Elliot played with his leggos (this book is so cool) and then we reviewed some facts in our bug book. After, Elliot practiced the letter E and we had an art sesh where we colored and created a honeybee mosaic. Bees rule.

This morning we had a chill lesson for our nature study. After a book about a day in the life of a honey bee we did some fun worksheets, a little math, worked on patterns, and played my word in the honey game (which you can download for free at graystardesign.com/homeschool). Then we made a honeycomb rubbing and bees from our Wikki Stix.

Elliot is still dealing with a cold/allergies so we are taking the day to rest and chill out. But I’ve got more honey bee fun on the way ✨

It’s all about honey bees this week in our nature study! We started our lesson with a few good books and learned about the life cycle, the types of bees and their jobs, and how they make honey. Then looked at their anatomy, completed a life cycle worksheet, practiced line work and reviewed letters.

We also played a counting game I created. You can either use dice or just choose a number and then your child adds that amount of bees to the hive. You can download this for free along with a letter activity from my Honey Bee Unit! Just visit graystardesign.com/homeschool. Bees are pretty awesome and we can’t wait to learn more ✨

Trying to have an easy morning over here so I kept our lesson pretty short. We looked at various butterflies and moths, reviewed the anatomy, practiced letters/shapes/numbers, and completed a sticker activity in our bug book. I haven’t been feeling well so the rest of the day we are taking it easy. Happy Friday everyone.
