Answer 2

Okay how about this... you could do a population study of the insects around your school...

What you do if find a quiiet section on campus rope off like a ten square foot section...
then every foot within that squire you bury one plastic cup..
the cup acts as a pit fall trap for insects and every morning for a month you go check what you caught and record what it was and where in the square it came from...

you'll learn to ID insect types and when your done you can estimate how many insects per square foot can be found at school.

These projects came from a search for fungus (mold is a fungus):
