There’s a fungus among us!  10/11

In class we have been learning about mushrooms. We explored the woods and looked for different types of fungi. We drew them in our notebooks and asked three questions about each type of species and the decomposers surrounding it. I really enjoyed getting to draw the mushrooms!

My favorite part of this learning experience was that we got to be one with nature. We also made spore prints that were really cool. One thing I learned about mushrooms is that what we see is the fruiting body. Mushrooms spread by microscopic spores that spreads across the ground. Mushrooms can grow really fast. Many mushrooms are edible but some are not. You have to be careful to identify edible mushrooms correctly!
