​HEALERS OF TOMORROW

With all the flowers in bloom, it seems unfair not to give credit where it's due - to all our wonderful bee friends!

Our 4/8 session emphasized the importance of "Bee-ing Curious" about the world around us! Bees are magnificent creatures, and we attempted to tackle the 2000-yr old conundrum of why bees create hexagonal cells in their hives.

We learned about bee anatomy and their importance in pollinating our crops. We know that without bees, our cherished food and flowers would not be available to us.


Collaboration and teaching each other is key for bee and human survival, and our Healer Challenge activity involved building "hives" with strips of paper. The requirements were to 
  1. build uniform hexagonal cells
  2. attach the cells to one another
  3. same colors could not touch each other

Both teams did wonderfully!

We invite you to learn from and share our online presentation - Bee-ing Curious! We drew inspiration from this fantastic NPR blog post. It makes for a great bed time story!

Congrats to the Healers for their engineering feats!
