Introduction to Grassland Ecosystems

  • Grade Level: Grade 9 and up
  • Runtime for the PowerPoint is approximately 40 minutes

The Introduction to Grassland Ecosystems explores what makes our grasslands special: how they came to be, how they’re managed, what unique species live there, how they support pollinators and how they work overtime to help us fight climate change. 

If your students live outside of the Prairies, or if they would like to learn more about the land they live on, this is a great introduction to the wonderful world of grasslands.
