7 lessons//7 Weeks
 Week 1
Lesson 1
Handshake, high five, fist bump
Teach your cat to shake hands, and learn to put a fun twist as high fives or fist bumps. This trick is easy to learn and requires little physical effort, so lo cats, young and old, can learn this one! An important trick later on, so help your cat to learn this well!

Might as well jump
Cats will learn to jump over your arm or leg, progressing to jumping through hoops,
 Week 3
Lesson 3
Acting 101
Your cat will learn to play dead (or lie down if you prefer) and roll over. This trick will take a bit more patience, and is the first big step up in difficulty
 Week 4
Lesson 4

 Week 5
Lesson 5
Hustlers shell game
Teach your cat to play a shell game! Wow friends with how smart your cat is at finding the treat. Tips on how to help your cat guess correctly
 Week 6
Lesson 6
Jump around
Teach your cat to make a long horizontal jump into your arms! Go for the Guinness book of world records! And teach your cat to jump from the ground into you arms. Your cat will gradually build confidence in you catching him and you will gradually increase the distance he jumps. Very young or very old cats may not be physically able to do this trick. Wear a thick sweater for this one, cause your cat is going to need his claws!
 Week 7
Lesson 7
For whom the bell tolls
Teach your cat to ring a dinner bell! This trick Builds on the handshake, so make sure your cat knows that first! This can be used to teach other ticks where your cat needs to touch a different object on command. It’s up to your imagination!
Students will learn how to use positive reinforcement to train their cats fun tricks. They will also learn to be patient as they better understand how a cat thinks. 
Homework Offered
Each week, after watching the posted video, students should submit a video outlining the steps of the trick. The video should be a minimum of 60 seconds, not to exceed 3 minutes. Please submit the video by Saturday 12:00 am. Students without a cat may use a stuffed animal or a family member with a sense of humor. I don’t expect the cat to perform the trick in one weeks time, I only expect the student to demonstrate their understanding of how to teach the trick.
1 - 2 hours per week outside of class
Assessments Offered
I will assess the students demo video each week and leave feedback.
Grades Offered
A cat harness and leash, a dowel or stick 10-18 inches long ( disposable chopsticks work fine)  a dinner bell (the sort you press down on to ring, not pick up and shake), and 3 disposable cups. 
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.
