1 hora por semana. Occasionally I will assign homework or an assignment throughout the course of this class. Students are expected to be prepared with the homework before the beginning of the following class. Assignments and homework will be posted within the classroom for students. Homework and answers will be gone over during class, as they are a learning opportunity for students and teacher to understand where they are at on the spectrum of understanding.

This class is to be in-depth and will be focused on the overall study of the horse. During class, I love to show students real-life experiences and have them become involved in their learning. Learners will participate in discussions throughout class, watch videos, analyze photos, and will sometimes be asked to sketch or color during class to aid learning. We will go over terminology, colors, breeds, diseases, soundness, anatomy, nutrition, dental, veterinary, behavior, horse judging, disciplines, foaling, and equipment.  

Equine experience is beneficial but not required in this course as we will start at a foundational level and work our way through more advanced material. This course is a great option for students who want to pursue a career as an equine professional or would like to envelop themselves in learning all about the horse! 

The class meeting of the course will be a horse hippology contest amongst students. This will cover the course material that students have learned during the past eighteen weeks.

Experiencia y certificaciones del docente
As an educator, I have an extensive background in the equine industry. I received my Associate of Applied Science in Equine Training & Management and have pursued a career as a riding instructor, horse trainer, barn manager and horse judge. Throughout my college degree, I have taken many equine courses including health, nutrition, reproduction, business, anatomy, physiology, and horsemanship. Horses have been a large part of my life for over fifteen years in which I have competed in western performance and ranch horse versatility events. I am prepared to teach this course!
