Education Resources
Below is a list of some websites we recommend visiting for classroom
materials related to mushrooms and other fungi. We have visited each
of these sites but cannot take responsibility for the complete accuracy
of their materials, effective use of those materials, or changes to
their sites and educational materials since we last reviewed them.
The North
American Mycological Association provides K-12 classroom
materials, educational slides and a diagram of the mushroom life cycle
here.
The British
Mycology Society for classroom materials related to mushrooms and other fungi. Free mushroom
classroom materials including display posters and graphics files can
be used and downloaded for free if used for educational purposes.
Microbiology skills are sometimes needed to learn more about mushrooms
and other fungi; we recommend visiting www.microbiologyonline.org.uk for free microbiology classroom materials.
