Coding for Conservation
LAUNCHING IN FALL 2025!
Bring coding and environmental science to your classroom—no prior experience required! This CSTA and NGSS-aligned program guides students to code BBC Micro:bit sensors, install them in native bee houses, and collect real-world data, blending STEM learning with hands-on conservation.
Lesson Plans For Teachers
Bees are bee-yond important to our ecosystem, which is why sharing the news with the next generation is critical! These standard-aligned lesson plans are the perfect guide as you explore the world of honey bees & native bees with your students.
Native Bee Science for Schools
This community science project delves into the fascinating world of native solitary bees. Students learn to make a native bee nest home and monitor them to collect data. This program includes asynchronous materials and the opportunity to register for live synchronous lessons.
Student Activities & Games
Take your students’ learning a step further with our supplemental activities! The pollinator matching game, bees and wasps game (think sharks and minnows), and food web activity are sure to keep students engaged and excited while they learn about the environment.
