Week 3 Day 2 Activity 3 - Flying Fungi

Today I have to imagine we ran a test in our classroom and discovered 7 different types of mould.   Eeewww gross.  
The cleaner said it will day 5 days for each mould to be removed.  I now have to work out how many days it will take to remove all the moulds one at a time.

 How I solved the problem out was that I did 7 moulds ×5 days each =35 days in total

The word ‘bumblebee’ is a compound word (bumble + bee). The word ‘bumble’ means to  hum, buzz, or drone.

Bumblebees can fly very quickly. They can reach ground speeds of
54 kilometres per hour (km/h).

Bumblebees are very strong! They carry up to 90 percent of their body weight in food with them to avoid starvation.

Bumblebees can do more work and carry more pollen than other bees, including honeybees. In fact, they can do up to 50 times as much work as a normal honeybee.

The number of bumblebees is declining in New Zealand due to a number of factors, including the removal of wildflowers and flowering trees, habitat loss and extensive use of pesticides.
