Fungus Amongus
Wakeley, Deidra
Science Scope, v29 n3 p34-38 Nov-Dec 2005
This role-playing simulation is designed to help teach middle level students about the typical lifecycle of a fungus. In this interactive simulation, students assume the roles of fungi, spores, living and dead organisms, bacteria, and rain. As they move around a playing field collecting food and water chips, they discover how the organisms interact, the special adaptations they have for survival, and the characteristics of the fungus's biotic habitat. A list of resources is included.
