Buzzing Into Action: The Jobs of Honey Bees

Be a busy bee as you learn all about the different jobs honey bees have in their hives! Learners will read a passage that describes what worker, drone, and queen bees do to help the hive thrive and how their different body parts allow them to perform their jobs. Then, they’ll answer a series of questions about information from the passage to test their understanding. 

This worksheet is a great choice for third graders learning about animal adaptations and ecosystems. As they read through the passage, young scientists can gain an interest in the animal kingdom and the ways that different animals are uniquely suited for their ecological niches. They will also practice important skills such as comprehending and answering questions about informational texts.
