A free 5 lesson unit called 'What is Happening to the Rusty Patched Bumblebee?' is available for grades 6-8, 9-12, and Advanced Placement. 

From SkyDay:

Students figure out the effects of changes to the ecosystem on the Rusty Patched Bumble Bee. The unit introduces the changing patterns in our climate and students apply their learning to predict the effects of Climate Change on the ecosystem and the species that rely on it.  Learning is extended beyond the walls of the classroom when students create blog posts, engage in intergenerational conversations, and design actionable solutions to the problem of the decline of this keystone species.
