Our Bennett Bees learned the difference between observation and inference during their science class. First, the class made observations of the candle. After Ms. Bishop ate the candle, they had to infer how could she eat the candle. They inferred that it was a banana or an apple core. The candle was string cheese with an almond wick. #oneteamonehive
