FLL Project Homework - Week of 10/9/2016 - 10/16/2016

Today the team presented the root causes of the CCD, and came up with the solution:

The Lymin Ducks will build a prototype habitat which is a sanctuary for bees. In this habitat, bee will not be exposed to the elements which will cause CCD. This will be a long-term experiment to  build a smallest yet functional bee habitat which, if successful, can be replicated.

Components of the Habitat and Assignment:
1. Fruit Trees - Chungtai
2. Pond with aquatic plants - William
3. Bee Hives - Williams
4. Wildflower to feed and attract Bees - Aiden
5. Bee Hotel - Sammy

Project Requirement:
Chungtai:
Come up with a list of fruit tree or flowering trees which will be best habitat for bees.
Research for breed name, where to buy, the price
Calculate how many months these trees can support the bees
Calculate how many trees needed to support a hive of 50,000 bees.

William:
Design the shape and size of a small pond which can support bees
Come up with a list of required aquatic plants for our planting zone. 
Present a design which will be a future bee hive and what material is needed to build it

Aiden:
Come up with the names of flowers for this bee habitat
List a few species of flowers for each of the season
Research what plants can feed the bees during Winter.

Sammy:
Come up with a design of the bee hotel
Consider how to improve upon the bee hotel to make it more bio-diverse.
Research the placement of the hotel to keep it safe from predators
Come up with a material list needed to build it
Come up with the design and instructions for the hotel
