EDUCATIONAL TOOLKIT
The three educational e-books "Small Is Beautiful" (in Greek), designed for (a) Kindergarten and Grades 1–2 of Primary School, (b) Grades 3–6 of Primary School, and (c) Middle School–High School, are based on the core principle:
"I don't just learn about Bees; through Bees, I also learn about myself and the world around me."
Through inquiry-based and experiential activities, students explore the world of Bees and pollinators, discover their importance for life and ecosystems, and, starting from this knowledge, reflect on our own relationship with nature and the world around us.
The educational toolkit is complemented by three educational videos featuring students and teachers, created with the guidance of Beelosophy and the Environmental Education Centre of Syros Hermoupolis.
Through observation, experimentation and creativity, students explore the world of Bees and pollinators and share what they discovered: how Bees see flowers, why they need water, and how pollination is connected to our food.
Three short stories, capturing a living educational experience through the perspective, voices and creativity of students and teachers.
