(Ongoing) Horses: Equine Science Advanced Vet Anatomy and Biology (11-15Yo)

The first of its kind on the Outschool platform, it is the most in-depth look at cat & dog anatomy and physiology currently available to kids. 

⭐ 🥇 Awarded both the Star Teacher and Popular Teacher badges in 2024, the course curriculum teacher and designed custom created this curriculum to draw in the attention and curiosity of children with vet school aspirations. 

Although it is created for students of all pet-knowledge levels, it will be too advanced for some. I will be teaching the names of actual muscles, bones, nerves, tendons, veins, and other body parts. Some of these words are much more difficult words than students are accustomed to and thus it may be overwhelming for some learners. 

In an effort to simplify and digest, subduing information overload, classes are short. Please do not be mistaken, these classes are are info-packed.


⏺ Students can jump into learning (or miss a week of learning) at any time and stay as many weeks as desired! Each class will comprise of both a course lecture (filled with images on lecture slides) and retention activities to help learners remember the material. 
⏺ Students are encouraged to color the muscle/bone/body part as we identify it and study it; not work ahead. The book is listed below.
⏺ Activities and additional, optional learning may include: games, quizzes, label diagrams, printable dough model mats, note taking is encouraged, and occasional body movement.
⏺ Please bring the book and coloring utensils as well as pen/pencil to class every week.
❌ This course is not a reproductive education course. Quetsions will be answered anatomically correctly, but we don't go into detail for this course.

✔ Due to publication and copyright, I will not be providing students with the pictures to copy in class for their coloring purposes. However, the book lasts the entirety of the 37 weeks. Parents should be aware at the end of the book, there are reproductive pages. This course will not cover these pages. 



🟪 My mission for this class: 🟪 
Vet students and horse owners know what things are, how they function, and how the horse is affected when things go wrong. In this class, my mission is that riders understand how their actions affect their horses, and how one body part directly affects another, why performance abilities shift, how injuries occur, and how seemingly unrelated body parts affect and hinder others.
