Cultivating Knowledge: Exploring Fungi and Sustainability in the Classroom

Introduction to the Fungi Kingdom

The Fungi Kingdom, or Kingdom of Fungi, is one of the five major kingdoms that encompass all known living beings to date, and it is the second largest after the insect kingdom. Alongside the Animal, Plant, Protist, and Monera kingdoms, it forms part of the biological diversity of our planet. While we often associate fungi with molds or mushrooms, this group is far more extensive and fascinating, including organisms such as yeasts, molds, and, of course, the mushrooms we find in nature.

Known as the "decomposers" of the ecosystem, fungi are experts in creating vital connections and act as engineers of nutrient communication and logistics between themselves and other living beings. Their role is crucial for life, as they transform organic matter into essential nutrients that benefit the entire ecosystem. Would you like to know how they do it?
