Animals and Their Benefits to Society

This class is taught in English.

Students will be able to identify various animal types and their roles in society.
Students will be able to understand the difference between animal rights and animal welfare. 

This topic is one of the first lessons that I teach and have my students complete in my Small Animal Management classes. Small Animal is a class that students take to learn about small animals such as dogs, cats, and others such as birds and exotics. 

Homework for this lesson will not be assigned. All activities will be done through the duration of the lesson. 

Learners will be assessed informally by answering questions, and completing an activity through the duration of the lesson. 

1 hour 15 minutes per week in class, and maybe some time outside of class.

We will be utilizing information from iCEV which is an online learning platform utilized by Career and Technical Education teachers such as agriculture science teachers.
