What's Inside
As children listen together, they hear a simple invitation to find out how honey is made. The book names science, bees, honey, how honey is made, and bee anatomy, which gives teachers a clear focus for a group read-aloud.
Use it in circle time or a small-group science lesson when you want children to listen for topic words and talk about how bees help make honey. It fits well with early science discussion for second and third grade.
