Celebrate World Bee Day with a swarm of sweet educational activities from Project Learning Tree! There's no better time to learn about all the benefits bees bring us, including contributions to biodiversity, the stability of our ecosystems and food security.

Plus, help raise awareness about the threats facing bees, including habitat loss, pesticides, and climate change, and conservation efforts to help our pollinating pals overcome these obstacles.

Engage Students With Pollinator Activities for World Bee Day - Project Learning Tree Engage students in learning about the vital role of bees and other pollinators with these engaging activities for World Bee Day.

Seven students working toward their Masters of Arts in Teaching participated in a PLT professional development day at Columbia International University last week.

The afternoon was filled with fun activities, including, How Many Cones Are You?, Discovery Tables: Favorite Tree Maze & Make a Nest, Home Tweet Home and more!

We look forward to seeing how these amazing students will use PLT's Trees and Me activities in their future careers as educators.

Thank you to Dr. Lynn Hoekstra for leading this training!
