Do Mushrooms Bite?

Activity 1. Mushroom detectives

 

Few people know that mushroom doubles exist. These are “secret agents” who are very often not on our team. On the contrary, they can spoil not only our mood, but seriously damage even the human body.

The task is to enter the role of detectives and expose the “secret agents” – poisonous mushrooms. For this purpose:

  1. Read carefully the textual information about the 8 types of mushrooms presented in Worksheet 1. Useful mushrooms and their counterparts.
  2. Look at the pictures of the mushrooms available at https://learn-about-the-mushrooms.alle.bg/%D0%B3%D1%8A%D0%B1%D0%B8-%D0%B4%D0%B2%D0%BE%D0%B9%D0%BD%D0%B8%D1%86%D0%B8/.
  3. Based on the data you have researched, complete the table in Worksheet 1. Write down their similarities/differences and identify which mushroom pairs are edible mushroom and poisonous mushroom twins.
  4. Based on the data provided, determine which mushroom corresponds to which picture. Complete the table in the worksheet and glue the picture or draw the mushroom in the designated location.
