What feedback have you received from students or parents about the learning in this kit? Unfortunately we needed to move on to our next inquiry topic within a certain time frame but students were chomping at the bit to explore this kit furter and further.
Students were thoroughly engaged in a creative, yet detailed way of understanding more about animals and their health. It was also very relatable to human health too.

Engaging from the get go. Students loved getting the opportunity to become a vet. Lots of science based conversations which is what I wanted to build on through our inquiry which was science based.

What feedback have you received from students or parents about the learning in this kit? That they learnt so much about different animals and how better to take care of their own animals.
I recently had the opportunity to use the Story Vets School Kits in my classroom, and I was thoroughly impressed. These kits provide a unique and engaging way to teach students about veterinary medicine and animal care. The kits are packed with a variety of resources, including story cards, props, and activities. The story cards feature different animal patients with various ailments, allowing students to practice diagnosing and treating them. The props, such as stethoscopes and x-rays, make the learning experience even more realistic and fun. One of the things I appreciated most about these kits is how they align with the curriculum. The activities are designed to support learning in subjects like science, literacy, and critical thinking. They also encourage teamwork and problem-solving skills. Overall, I highly recommend the Story Vets School Kits to any teacher looking for a creative and effective way to teach their students about veterinary medicine. They are sure to be a hit with both students and teachers alike.

What feedback have you received from students or parents about the learning in this kit? They loved it. They look forward to doing another one.
It was my first time using the school kits because I am a beginning teacher. Very engaging resource and such a simple set up. Easy to use, a little bit of reading involved to find your feet, but well worth it. Kids loved it.

My class really enjoyed this but a complex topic in some areas, so I mad modifications for those areas that needed it for my class.

What feedback have you received from students or parents about the learning in this kit? They loved the posts we shared on Hero and the conversations they had around the dinner table!
Right from the get go our class was buzzing with excitement and curiosity. The students walked into the classroom to find our provocation station and it was a hit! There were many questions and ohhhs and ahhhs as they puzzled over the items trying to build connections. The glasses were a hit and so were the x-rays! Lots of students had not heard the story Henny Penny so we were able to link this beautifully with our narrative writing. We had lots of giggles when we talked about worming and making the link between animals and humans. A lot of us exclaimed they had no pulse which then lead to the interesting conversations. We saved our school kit for after camp and it was something that excited and engaged our students.
