By being a part of the group, students will
1) Learn about a variety of different animals in a large array of different ways (i.e. discussion posts, activities, games etc.)
2) Be exposed to how communication works online and how to do so respectfully with people from around the world
3) Gain confidence about sharing their opinions, questions, and comments with others
 

I have a Bachelor of Science with a major in Zoology and have worked in the animal field for almost 10 years. In addition, I have a teaching degree in science and biology. I have taught Zoology classes on Outschool for long while now too. I have a strong passion for animals and believe I can make this topic fun and exciting for students who are just as passionate and interested!

Welcome to The Zoology Zone! We want all of our learners to feel comfortable, connected, and safe. That's why we have 4 instructions we ask you to follow: Be Kind, Be Safe, and Be Respectful.

Be Kind - Help all learners feel welcome and included.
Learners from all over the world, with different backgrounds, races, ethnicities, abilities, gender identities, religions and body types, participate in our Group. Always be nice and make others, especially new learners, know that they belong and are welcome. Teasing, name calling, or bullying anybody in our community? Nope. Not happening here
    
Be Safe - Keep your personal information private and never ask other learners for theirs.
Personal things are personal. We want to keep you safe on Outschool, but we also want YOU to understand how to be safe when you're meeting other learners or teachers. Keep your full name, home address, gaming or social media name, email, and school name private.
    
Be Respectful - Treat others how you want to be treated.
Keep language clean and information you share safe. If you wouldn't say it or share with your grandma, don't do it here. Swear words, racy videos, and violent images are not allowed. Treat Outschool like a public place, and when in doubt, keep things covered.

Have fun! - Remember, this is a fun and welcoming place for everyone to participate with other students from around the world who share your passion. Don't be afraid to participate in all this group has to offer!
