The Wood Wide Web
This engaging interactive program will challenge how your students understand and think about forest systems. Forest ecosystems can be millions of years old, and for centuries the assumption has been that a forest is made up of individual trees and plants. Scientific research has uncovered that forests are connected through a vast underground fungal network dubbed the Wood Wide Web.
Through a series of activities students will explore the important role forests play in the global carbon cycle, how and why trees collaborate within forest systems, and get tangled in an Australian woodland food web.
