- The word ‘bumblebee’ is a compound word (bumble + bee). The word ‘bumble’ means to Hum, buzz, or done.
- Bumblebees can fly very quickly. They can reach ground speeds of 54 kilometres per hour (km/h).
- Bumblebees are very strong! They carry up to 90 percent of their body weight in food with them to avoid starvation.
- Bumblebees can do more work and carry more pollen than other bees, including honeybees. In fact, they can do up to 50 times as much work as a normal honeybee.
- The number of bumblebees is declining in New Zealand due to a number of factors, including the removal of wildflowers and flowering trees, habitat loss, and extensive use of pesticides
I have no clue why my computer did this?
Activity 2:
I would probable put sausages, egg, Brussels sprouts, Seafood, black lollies. That is all the food i would put down the sink.
Activity 3:
I think it would take about 26 to 30 day to clean it all out of every classroom. Just because
it might be very toxic then and there.
Kia ora Paris,
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year! :) I'm so glad to see that you've been keeping up with the Summer Learning Journey programme. It looks like you've completed a lot of activities - well done!
Well done on filling in the blanks of each sentence correctly. These are some really interesting facts. I didn't realise just how hard working bumblebees are. It's sad to hear that the number of bumblebees is declining. Do you have any ideas as to how we could stop that from happening?
It's great to see that you've put some thought into our 'Flying Fungi' problem. If you have another look at the activity it actually gives you the numbers you can use to work out the exact number of days. Let me know if you can't find the information and I can help you :)
Blog ya later!
Mikey
Stop killing them and make sure the flowers don't die. I can't find it
ReplyDeleteGood morning Paris,
ReplyDeleteHere's the link to the 'Flying Fungi' activity (day two, activity three):

The task says that there are 7 different kinds of mould, and that it takes 5 days for each mould to be eradicated (removed). That information will help you solve it. Give it another go and I'll check back soon. :)
Have a lovely day Paris,
Mikey :)
