Mutt-i-grees Curriculum

Cats work best in my life now where I foster rescued kittens until a forever home is located.  When I tried to explain that the kittens were only staying with me a little while to my nephew and niece, I thought, “This is going to be difficult for them to understand.”  I couldn’t have been more wrong.  After explaining, my then 4 year old niece summed it up.  “You’re just babysitting the kitties, right Aunt Penny?”  How do they do that?

I am enamored with pets in the classroom.  I’ve posted about the Pets in the Classroom grants, and just stumbled upon this program.

The Mutt-i-grees Curriculum sounds fantastic.  The curriculum is research based in emotional intelligence and social and emotional learning.  Get this, feature lessons on dog behavior by expert Cesar Millan! 

Principals from accredited schools may order one of each grade level FREE.  Share this with your principal and staff, it could be the curriculum you’ve been seeking!
