RYAN THE BEEKEEPER TELLS IT LIKE IT IS!
The hive is like a kingdom, with a queen and her loyal servants.
The queen bee is one of the biggest bees in the hive. She leaves the hive to mate with a drone bee and lays around 200 eggs a day.
Worker bees are like mothers, they do all the chores and labour. They clean the cells, feed the queen bee, and find the nectar and pollen to make the honey.
Then there’s the drones, they eat the honey, so they are kicked out during winter, so that they don’t deplete the food supply for the rest of the hive.
Hi Ryan! Interesting story about bees. Is the queen bee the one on top of the building and the workers are at the bottom? I wonder how much honey they could make without the drones getting the honey for the supply. Again, I loved your story!

Hi Ryan,
Reading your story gave me so much info about the queen bee and how the beehive works. Just from reading your 100 word passage, I learned so many things about bees I didn’t know. Great Job!

Dear Ryan,
I really liked your informative piece! I wonder, if the drones don’t help with gathering, what do they do? Good job!

Hi Ryan, your story was amazing. A fascinating part was when they kick the drones out of the hive because they eat all the food. Keep up the good work.
Dear Ryan,
I like how you made a story going along with your text and how you gave the queen bee more of her own story at the same time! I also liked how you added the drone, I like the fact that you said you kick them out during the winter! It was a great story and I would like to see more from you!
Hi! I really like your piece and it was really interesting but, I felt like it was more facts than a story. This was just my interpretation of it, but other than that it was great!
Dear Ryan,
Your story was great and very informative! I loved it, I also like the plot twist at the end of the story about the drones. You did an excellent job the only thing I noticed is that it is 101 words. Other than that you had an excellent story. It was very organized and it was a new type of story that I haven’t read yet.
