Detectives animales asombrosos (clase en curso): historias reales de mascotas que resuelven crímenes

In this ongoing, weekly class, students will choose which animal detective story they would like to learn about each week! Each session topic will be learner-directed. I will research the stories in advance, present options to the learners, and share about whichever story the learners want to hear. Examples of stories we may cover include a money-sniffing dog, a horse that could predict the future, and a cat whose DNA solved a crime. Learners are welcome to draw the story as we discuss. Learners can ask questions throughout the story, share observations, and tell stories about interesting animals they know. 

Some of these stories involve crimes like murder and missing persons, which, for this age group, we will discuss in class as someone who is missing or lost.

No supplies or materials will be necessary for this class. The learners can just sit back, relax, and listen and share their thoughts. However, learners are also welcome to draw the story as we discuss. Student participation is encouraged but not required. In order to facilitate learning and maintain a classroom free of distraction, no filters will be permitted, no backgrounds may be used (except for blur), and no emojis may be used other than a raised hand. After learner verification, video can be on or off. Chat will be closed except for student/teacher messaging. Any questions from learners regarding the subject matter can be asked orally, or can be asked in the chat, but I will answer questions orally for the benefit of the entire class.
