Week 1: All Creatures Great and Small: All hands on deck! This round floor discussion will allow the children to investigate, explore, and discover the individual animals of the learning center. There will be a few animal surprises!

Week 2: Wellness Exams: Just like for humans, wellness exams and preventative care are a huge part of keeping pets healthy.  Students will learn the basics of a veterinary wellness exam, and then perform them on our VIT pets.

Week 3 Canine Breed Bonanza:  Man's best friend comes in a variety of shapes and sizes.  Different breeds have different traits that make them unique.  Students will discover the amazing things each breed has to offer.

Week 4: Interactive Case Studies:   Students will get hands-on and interpret real veterinary cases - putting themselves in the position of the veterinarian to help diagnose and treat animals.

Week 5: Wildlife Encounter:   Learn how to conduct yourself in the presence of a wild animal.  Sick, injured, and healthy animals all react differently.  Students will explore what they can do to keep wildlife safe.

Week 6: Intro to Suturing Surgery is an important skill for a veterinarian to master.  Learning basic needle skills are essential to veterinary medicine.  Students will practice suturing techniques on our stuffed patients.

Week 7: Triage:  Information is the key to excellent veterinary care.  Students will learn why the triage process is so important to veterinarians in the course of their treatment.

Week 8: Zoonotic Disease:  Certain Diseases cross species.  Students will learn about types of Zoonotic disease and learn how outbreaks happen through a fun, hands-on lab!
