Reclaiming Habitat for Honeybees

Explore the role of pollinators in the ecosystems they are a part of. In this interactive lesson, students will develop a written response to one of three questions about the importance of honeybees. They will gather evidence from reading assignments and video segments about Coal Country BeeWorks’ efforts to reclaim surface mining sites. Those efforts and the introduction of new colonies of honeybees have been mutually beneficial in Eastern Kentucky.
