Here are a few activities to help our Year 7s and 8s to keep up their English skills over the term break:
Discussion questions
- What would it feel like to hold so many bees in your hand?
- What would it sound like?
- Would there be a smell?
- How would you feel emotionally, holding so many bees in your hand?
Writing activities
- Write a report from the beekeeper’s perspective for the local council newsletter. Why were you called? What happened? Were there any challenges? What was the outcome? How long did it take?
- Write a descriptive narrative about removing the bees, focussing on the 5 senses.
- Write a set of instructions (procedural writing) on how to remove or save a swarm of bees
