Description
Class Experience
My teaching style is student-centered with a blend of direct instruction, question and answer discussions, and active student involvement with each activity. Using virtual hands-on learning time with 'real live horses' in our barn, students will be taught handling and grooming techniques to take a horse from "pasture dirty to saddle ready." During our first class session, we will focus on gaining basic horse knowledge (horse history, breed types, coat colors and markings, horse body parts)...
Students will learn background history, coat color and markings, breed types, and safety with horses. Students will learn key vocabulary related to the body regions of a horse when being groomed. Students will learn basic handling skills (haltering, leading, cross-tying, etc.) when around horses. Students will learn how to properly identify and use grooming tools for a horse.
Between classes, students should review study guide vocabulary and procedures shared during class.
A study guide will be provided prior to the start of this class!
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
2 hours 15 minutes per week in class, and an estimated 0 - 1 hours per week outside of class.
