Opal class busy bees

This week in Science we have been looking at pollination and the different ways that pollination can happen. We looked at pollination through the air, through water and by a range of different animals.

We then took on the role of honey bees and used cotton buds to find pollen samples and transfer them from flower to flower. We also took rubbings from a range of plants to see what the pollen looked like. Unfortunately, the rain came before we could really get stuck in.

Secret task – 5 team points are on offer for everyone who has the part of the plant that produces pollen written in their diary!
