From Flower to Jar

A honeybee visits about a hundred flowers on one trip. She sucks up nectar and stores it in a special stomach. Back at the hive, she passes the nectar to another bee. That bee chews it for about half an hour. Then it goes into a wax cell. The bees fan the cell with their wings. The water dries out and the nectar thickens into honey. Then the cell is sealed with wax.

  1. 1. About how many flowers does a bee visit on one trip?
  2. 2. What would a diagram for this text need to show?
  3. 3. What do the bees use to seal the cell?
2.Read the text, then answer the questions.

Owls

Owls hunt at night. Their eyes are very large, so they can see when there is almost no light. An owl's feathers have soft edges. This makes their wings quiet. A mouse cannot hear an owl coming. Owls cannot move their eyes from side to side. Instead, they turn their whole head. An owl can turn its head much further than you can.

  1. 1. Why are an owl's eyes very large?
  2. 2. What would a diagram of an owl need to label?
  3. 3. When do owls hunt?
