However, they can be as small as 1/4 of an inch. They can have various coloring (black, yellow, green, etc.). Men can't sting, and women only sting when they are provoked or feel threatened.

They are not very efficient at pollinating. Killer bees are extremely aggressive, so if they feel in any way threatened or provoked they will sting. Killer bees attack in swarms. However, they don't go hunting for people to sting. They just respond to threats very seriously. ]]> 2017-11-15 02:13:36 UTC https://padlet.com/1012849/kxy4tix0618k/wish/207030197 1012849 https://padlet.com/1012849/kxy4tix0618k/wish/207032499 Digger bees are about 1/2 of an inch to 1 inch long, and they can be various colors.

The stinger helps bees defend themselves. The abdomen also consists of the reproductive system  (which helps make more bees) and the digestive system (which helps them get nutrients into their bodies). Finally, the abdomen has wax scales. Wax scales form on some worker bees when they are 6-12 days old. They are produced by four pairs of wax glands.]]> 2017-11-15 20:29:26 UTC https://padlet.com/1012849/kxy4tix0618k/wish/207430688 1012849 https://padlet.com/1012849/kxy4tix0618k/wish/207469244 2017-11-15 22:48:06 UTC https://padlet.com/1012849/kxy4tix0618k/wish/207469244 1012849 https://padlet.com/1012849/kxy4tix0618k/wish/207469483 The egg is the first stage of a bees life.

Most bees only sting if they feel threatened or provoked. Bee stings can vary in many ways. Some types of bees can sting and some can't. Some bees have venomous stings and some don't. Some bees die when they sting someone and some don't. They die if their vital organs are connected to the stinger because the vital organs will be removed from the body. When someone gets stung by a bee, many things can happen. Some of these things are redness, swelling, pain, and itching. However, there are some ways to lower the chance of being stung. Bees are attracted to dark colors and print. Therefore, wearing solid, light colors decreases the chance of being stung. Also, if people leave bees alone, they probably won't sting in the first place.]]> 2017-11-15 23:10:58 UTC https://padlet.com/1012849/kxy4tix0618k/wish/207472859 1012849 https://padlet.com/1012849/kxy4tix0618k/wish/207475131 The book "Stung" by Bethany Wiggins helps the reader visualize what the world would be like without bees. Many plants wouldn't reproduce. Fruits and vegetables that depend on bees would stop growing. Wild honey would become rare.

I like how you did columns for each kind of bee but they need to be longer.
2. Title the Padlet !!!!!!!
3. I think you need to list a little more types of bees then in a separate square say how many types of bees there are like for example 300 types.
4. Other than that looks good. GOOD JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2. The first text box needs more information like how long they take to lay.

2. Needs to be longer.
3. I like how you put why they sting and that it is there only way of self defense.
