Plants and Pollinators

Students explore the relationship between pollinators and organisms in the food web

Program Description

Did you know that birds and bees are not the only pollinators we can find in nature? In this program, students will investigate how nature's consumers are directly impacted by the presence of pollinators and their relationship with organisms in the food chain. Students will read, "The Prairie That Nature Built," by Marybeth Lorbiecki, create an imaginary pollinator garden out of recycled materials and explore the plant life cycle by creating their own native seed ball.
