Even though there are many different types of flowers, all flowers have many parts and each part has a special job to do. Your task is to learn about the different parts of a flower and to create a Thinglink to share what you learn about the purpose of each part.

Flower Power
Learning Intention: By the end of this activity you will be able to describe the characteristics of flowers and plants that attract bees and other pollinators.
Success Criteria: I can use my data to see patterns and identify which flowers and plants attracted the most bees.
Do bees have favourite flowers? What kinds of flowers attract the most bees and other insects? What makes these flowers so attractive? Your task is to collect data about the number of bees that visit different types of flowers in gardens in the school grounds, your home or in a park. How will you safely collect this data? How will you record your data? How can you make this test "fair"?
