Quote the Text: Evidence Sandwiches — Homework
Read this passage, then build evidence sandwiches for the questions below: "A single honeybee will visit up to 5,000 flowers in one day while collecting nectar. Bees communicate the location of good flowers to each other using the waggle dance, a pattern of movement that tells other bees the direction and distance to travel. Without bees and other pollinators, roughly one in three bites of food we eat would not exist, since so many crops depend on pollination."
- 1.How many flowers might a single honeybee visit in one day?
- 2.Answer: how do bees share the location of good flowers? Quote the exact words that prove it.
- 3.Write a full evidence sandwich (answer, quote, explain) for: how important are bees to our food supply?
- 4.Why is quoting the exact phrase "one in three" stronger than just writing "bees are pretty important"?
