(Ongoing) Biology Veterinarian Club: Wild and Domestic Animal Vet Care (6-9Yo)

Veterinarians are in high demand all over the world. Likewise, one of the top three most common answers to, "What do you want to be when you grow up?" is... guess what... a veterinarian. Tons of children have a huge interest in working with animals: veterinarians, technicians, assistants, zookeepers, marine biologists, wildlife conservationists, and more. From cute dolphins to scruffy wolves to horses, leopards, and dogs... animals really capture the hearts of learners all over the world.

This class is specifically designed to be short, 25-minute sections of material because this material is real. This information is not fluff. This class is an age-appropriate, in-depth discussion of veterinary medicine. Each class is filled to the brim with content and there is ample time for your learner to ask questions and share opinions. Expect your learners to fall in love with some classes and not all; that is expected! When vet school comes around, learners will be learning all the animal species -- not just their favorites!

Every class is set up to be independent of others. Students can join the class at any time. Interactions in this class are usually verbal but we may have guessing games, videos, group brain mapping, and quizzes as well.

** Typically, when we reach the end, classes start over, but each class is different and unique for 36 lessons **
** Please Note: When starting a new section, I will start with four weeks to see if we gain traction. Because this is a club, multiple learners are beneficial to students maximizing their time in the classroom. Due to local law and OS policy, I do not treat, diagnose, or prescribe any medications for student's animals in this class. Advice will always be to see your local veterinarian in person.
