Mushroom Mania

Rain had come and gone, filling the pond and fattening the fruit, settling the

We’ve been busy hunting them, dissecting them, sorting them, wrtinng abotut them, trying to identify them :) , and making spore prints out of them. Mushrooms may not seem like a prime teaching opporutunity, but think again! They are very cool fungi!
