- Your turn to play as a group: mime the bee dance, find your family by smell, count the queen's eggs.
- Extra challenge for the older ones: a sum, a search, an observation.
- The hive on the wall: the cards pinned up day after day, the word of the day on display.
- The 24th: the big quiz in teams, then a diploma for every child.
What they learn
- The queen, the workers and their jobs, the drones.
- Five eyes, the antennae, the sting.
- From flower to honey: nectar, the waggle dance, pollen pants, pollination.
- Propolis, winter in the hive, the swarm.
- The beekeeper, the bees' enemies, flowers to plant, and what each of us can do to help them.
Ready-made links with living things, the seasons, maths (the challenges) and vocabulary (the word of the day).
