Connecting educators and parents with the tools and resources they need to help kids explore and understand the world around them.

Spotlight: Grasslands of the Northern Great Plains content pack

The resources in this content pack are designed to encourage learners to explore, analyze, and discuss the importance of grassland ecosystems like the Northern Great Plains, the benefits grasslands provide to wildlife and people, and our role in protecting them. The resources also take a look at the role pollinators play to keep ecosystems healthy while familiarizing learners with the pollinators and wildflowers native to their area. These resources are great for grades 3-8, but can be adapted for any age group.

Conservation in the Classroom

Bring conservation and science to life by giving children the opportunity to hear and interact with someone in the field. Through free 45-minute virtual events livestreamed on our website, children can hear WWF experts share stories of their experience working to protect species and habitats around the world.

We’ll travel across the grassland to learn about the abundant wildlife, plants, and people that make this region unique and so important to the entire North American continent. As we finish our trip, we’ll discover what threats this landscape faces and how you can help protect it for generations to come.
