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.
