Bees        


Bees live together in a hive. There are four kinds of bees in a hive: the queen bee and the male bees,
the worker bees and the young bees. They all have jobs to do.
The queen and the male bees stay in the hive and produce eggs.
The young bees stay in the hive. They store the honey in the hive.
All the bees can feed on the honey. When a worker finds a place where there are a lot of flowers,
it flies back to the nest and does a dance. This dance tells the other bees where the flowers are growing.

Ants

Ants live together in a big nest: the queen, the workers and the baby ants. The worker ants build the nest. They usually build a nest that is made up of rooms.  Each room is used for a different purpose. These weaver ants work together to build their nest. The young ants make silk threads. Then the worker ants use their mouths to sew leaves together with the silk thread. The nest is safe and strong.
