Class Experience

This is a great introduction to animal science class for kids who are wanting to learn about animals, but not ready for the more advanced classes. This course will primarily be lab based (100% hands on) with one beginning lecture with a power point and discussion based lesson. Students will get their best experience if they participate in discussions, ask questions and share knowledge with one another.
