Inspiration Mind Mapping
This mind map has good information, but it needs to be organized so it communicates more about the plant parts we eat. "Save as" with your name in the title before rearranging it and connecting the circles under the six main categories. Add other edible plant names to the empty circles. Use the check sheet from Ms. Augustine to take it to the next level.
