Bee Poems

We finished off our writing this term by creating poems about bees.

Bees are as sweet as an angel.

A bee is as fluffy as a bunny.

Ouch a bee stings me.

It feels like a needle plucked me. The worker bees work as hard as a maid.

The bee is buzzing around like a lawn mower.

By Sophia

Bees fly to a flower and it sounds like buzz.

Then she flew to New Zealand on a journey and made rich honey and got a lot of money.

Bee was yellow and black. When you see the bee it is like no other without bees we are dead.

Buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz.

Bees fly as fast as a person spiting for a medal. 

By Amy

There was a bee that had lots of money

Who collected pollen and honey

She’s yellow and black

And lives in a shack

But now is no longer funny.

By Leela 

Bees as bright as the morning sun

making yummy honey for your tummy

Springing from flower to flower making a soft buzzing sound

Working as hard as a builder carrying a big heavy pile of bricks

By Max

There was a bee that flew around

And could do this with no sound

She had three eyes

And liked to eat pies

But now cannot fly off the ground.

By Stella

Bees look like a stripy soldier,

Buzzing around your red towel,

Bee don’t go on that towel it not a flower,

Bees sound like a pepper shaker. 

By Lachlan 

Bees are a lovely thing

The make honey in the spring

You don’t have to kill Bees as they don’t sting

It sounds like a buzzing noise in my ear

Bees like honey because they are yummy.

By Mojdeh

I am black on a track with yellow stripes in the night

I eat chives with knives

Honey is good for my tummy

I get honey for my big fat tummy

By Lucia

The Bee

There was a bee from the city

That liked to fly hi

She’s working as hard as the teachers at meadow bank school

She makes everything good

By pollinating she’s really good

With her fluffy coat all around  

By Sarah

A bee looks like a zebra with the wrong colours. 

A bee sounds like a zipper going up and down. 

A bee works as hard as a builder building a house.

By Fox

Bees as yellow in the morning sun buzzing around gathering nectar

Bees are yellow and black they live in a shack

There’s a queen in the hive that lives with chives

Everyone is no longer funny because the queen bee has lots of money

By William

The bees work as hard as god making the world, the bees fly like they’re in trouble. They sound like someone saying “zzz” the wrong way, bees as bright as the morning sun and as dark as the midnight sky.

By Blake

A bee sounds like a lawn mower.

She looks like night but with yellow strips.

She works as hard as a builder that carries a block.

Bee Days

On Thursday we had a Year 4 bee day. We had a go at making bee related products as part of our bee topic. Thank you to all of the lovely parent helpers who came along. We really could not have done it without you.
After making the products, we came back to class to write instructions for the things we made. Read some of these below.
On Friday Sue came into talk to use about her bee hives and how she gets honey from them. It was really interesting.
Before assembly we watched this video all about bees and why they are important and how we can help. We have been doing our own writing about this in class. See that below too.

How to make a bees wax candle

I am going to teach you how to make a bees wax candle I think you should have a bees wax candle because it smells so nice.

You will need:
1. Bees wax
2. Wick

First you get the wax then you get the wick after you place the wick on the edge of the bees wax then you roll the wax and the wick up really tight so it will make a cylinder shape and your done there you go your very own bees wax candle.
This kind of bees wax is actually recycled because if you were a bee keeper you won’t be able to do anything with the bees wax but now you can by making a candle.

How to make a bees wax candle

I am going to tell you how to make a bees wax candle candles have been around for over 5,000 years.

First you will need: a sheet of wax paper and a wick

Firstly you put the wick on the edge of the wax. Next you roll up the wax. Finally you press the end of the wax down so it doesn’t flap around.

And that’s how you make a bees wax candle.

                                Seed bombs

What is a seed bomb?

A seed bomb is a big seed that grows by itself.

In London there are soldiers called gorilla solider, they go into damp and not nice places and threw seed bombs onto the land and make the place a better one.

You need…

Clay, dirt, water, seeds and a container.

First get the container and put in a little dirt and add a clump of clay. Next ad more dirt then add more water and mash and squish it up add the seeds and put it out to dry.

 

What can you do with it?

You can put it in your garden and it will grow and you don’t have to plant or water as long as it has got rain.

How to make seed bombs

Seed bombs are good for the bees because they plan more flowers and you don’t have to water them.

Step 1. First get some clay then put it in a bucket with soil then mix it around.

Step 2. Next pour some water into the bucket with the soil.

Step 3. Roll it into a ball and put some seeds in it and then leave it to dry. And then you can give it to someone or throw it in your garden and grow beautiful flowers to look at and that the bees can eat the nectar from.

                               Bees 

You can run through the forest hearing the soft humming and buzzing of bees. So if you like honey and food you better help save the bees do you want to live save the bees 1/3 of the food you eat is good because of bees so do something know.  

We need to do something about bees dying all over the world. If we don’t do something the world will end us humans and animals.

So help the bees.

Bees are important not just with honey but with our survival without bees,
