Back to School with Pets in the Classroom

Teachers are you getting ready for “Back to School?” Preparing classroom activities and lesson plans?

Have you thought about having a pet in your classroom, or do you have one? Pets in the Classroom (www.petsintheclassroom.org) is an educational grant program designed specifically for teachers to have a classroom pet. Grants are awarded in amounts of $50, $100 and $150 to purchase a classroom pet, or to purchase food and supplies.

This program offers teachers a way to add to the classroom environment, making it more interesting, as well as providing the opportunity to utilize the pet in the curriculum itself. Classroom pets can play a role in science, math, language arts and creative arts curriculums, as well as providing a place for children to spend some of their free time in the classroom caring for and interacting with the pet.

Pets in the Classroom

Hello,

We are asking for your assistance, and guidance to get the word out about an

amazing program to make small pets available to grammar school teachers

in the classroom.

This program is designed to help teachers that would like small animals as
teaching aids or mascots etc. in the classroom, or to assist teachers who
presently have animals, in obtaining supplies needed to care for the pet.
We realize that teachers have limited funds and our program offers grants
of up to $150.00 for the purchase of small animals such as fish, hamsters,
birds, as well as supplies.

We have the money, we have the program, we have a web site, all that is
needed is your help to get the word out. We at Pet Care Trust, feel that
exposing children to the care and responsibility for animals is imperative
in the development of good character and compassion in relationship to all
living things. Too much time is spent killing and destroying as a pastime
on the computer. The care of animals teaches children life affirming values.
If you could pass this along or give me advice on the best the get this
information to teachers it would be much appreciated.
