‘Bee’ prepared for Earth Day

Celebrate Earth Day, April 22, by reading about our planet’s powerful pollinator in “Flight of the Honey Bee.” Raymond Huber’s exciting book generates interest in these fascinating creatures as he chronicles the journey of Scout, as she leaves her hive in search of pollen and nectar. Woven throughout the thrilling narrative, in which Scout must overcome rain and hail; a hungry blackbird; and a belligerent wasp, are fun facts about bees such as, “Bees can smell in ‘stereo,’ each antenna smelling in a different direction.” The action is underscored by the kinetic watercolor illustrations by Brian Lovelock. Huber closes his book with advice on helping bees thrive. Your little reader may be so impressed that their feeling about the stinging insect will change from fear to fascination.

Westchester School for Special Children

The&nbsp;Westchester School&nbsp;is a New York State approved, non-public&nbsp;school&nbsp;that provides educational and therapeutic services to students from New York City,&nbsp;Westchester&nbsp;County, Long Island, and Connecticut.&nbsp; The school views all children, regardless of functioning level or handicapping condition, as children with potential for growth and development. Historically, educational programming, particularly for the severely handicapped was primarily concerned for easing the burden of those who cared for these children. Changes in legal standards and socio-philosophical perspectives made this an excessively limited and limiting approach. The rational for program and selection of educational objectives is based upon the developmental needs of the individual child.
